@TurkishAirlines I am extremely disappointed with how Turkish Airlines has handled what has turned into one of the worst travel experiences I have had.

My journey from Mallorca to Cape Town was booked as a single itinerary. After delays en route, my Barcelona - Istanbul flight arrived too late for my Cape Town connection. I was stranded at Istanbul Airport for approximately 24 hours until the next Cape Town flight and was told I could not be provided with hotel accommodation because of Turkish immigration/visa requirements.

After finally arriving in Cape Town a day late, my checked luggage did not arrive with me.

I immediately reported the missing bag at Cape Town and received a Property Irregularity Report. I was then expecting the bag to be forwarded on the next Istanbul - Cape Town service. That flight has now arrived in Cape Town and my bag was still not on it.

What makes this particularly frustrating is that Star Alliance baggage tracking shows activity for my bag at Istanbul Airport, including it being associated with my flight number, yet nobody I have contacted can tell me where the bag physically is or whether it has actually been loaded onto another flight.

I have contacted the South African baggage handlers and Turkish Airlines’ call centre. The call centre escalated the matter but could not provide the bag’s last confirmed physical scan, its current location, or a confirmed forwarding flight. I have effectively been passed between different channels while my luggage remains missing.

Flight disruptions happen. Baggage can occasionally be mishandled. What has made this experience unacceptable is the lack of effective customer support once things went wrong.

After a roughly 24-hour journey delay, an overnight wait at Istanbul Airport without hotel accommodation, and now multiple days without my checked luggage, I still cannot get a clear answer from Turkish Airlines about where my bag actually is.

@TurkishAirlines, I am asking for something very straightforward: please have your Istanbul baggage team physically locate my bag, confirm its last physical scan and current location, and provide a confirmed forwarding flight to Cape Town.

I have the PIR, baggage-tag details, tracking screenshots and full itinerary available privately to your support team.

Major cheat code for life: Be fully where your feet are. When you're at work, work. When you're with family, be with family. When you're resting, rest. Most people are physically present and mentally everywhere else.

A good demo is critical because investors, like consumers, fall in love with the product *first,* and then rationalize it after.

In physical domains (diet, workouts), consistency is king.
In intellectual & social domains, wins are rare, sudden, and nonlinear - 99% of effort is “wasted.”
Once we find our ideal spouse, career, friends, we realize how much time we squandered by not moving on sooner.

Springboks should have won that. Expect Pollard to start against Tonga and in the playoffs. Libbok seemed rushed by the shot clock. Faf hit or miss.

At least now the Boks have a chance to knock France out of their own World Cup as payback for lost host bid.

Book an Aussie card and announce Izzy as the headliner for September. Make a #1 MW contender fight in July. Have a dramatic face off in front of a crowd after a huge KO. Blame the fighter when he's injured and can't fight for a title 2 months later. Best promoter in the game.
