Turkish Airlines' passengers sometimes arrive later than planned at their destination. When they do, however, they can claim up to 600€ in compensation for their delayed flight. Your rights are procetted by EC261, the European regulation.
Flight delays bother Turkish Airlines just as much as their passengers. The airline that boast the largest amount of countries as destinations also has a schedule to stick to, after all.

You can get up to 600€ in compensation for your delayed flight with Turkish Airlines, depending on the length of your journey. To be eligible, you must have reached your destination at least 3 hours after the originally scheduled time of arrival, and the airline must be responsible for the delay. This applies to flight from Europe that were operated by Turkish Airlines.

As you can see from the data above, since January 2018, about 24% of Turkish Airlines’ flights arrived 15 minutes late or more. On average, flights by the airline were delayed by 39 minutes. Turkish Airlines actually registered a very good second quarter, with “only” one flight out of five arriving late (remember, the industry average is 25%, or one out of four flights). But their average performance isn’t as good mainly due to a bad third quarter that saw an increase of 9 points in the airline’s delayed flights ratio. By opposition, the As such, Turkish Airlines’ on-time performance can be qualified as slightly above average, with a rating of 5.4 out of 10.

International flights from Turkey also grant rights to passengers in the event of flight cancellation: they can be owed up to 600€. The same applies to flights from outside the EU to Turkey.
But Turkish Airlines are also subject to EC261 for their cancelled flights from Europe to Turkey. When the cancellation occur because of circumstances out of their control, they are not obligated to pay compensation to their passengers. But in cases that do not qualify as “extraordinary circumstances”, you could be owed between 250€ and 600€ from the airline.

In short, if the airline is responsible for the cancellation, they haven’t given you at least a 14-day notice, and you reach your final destination late (or don’t reach it at all), then it’s very likely that you are eligible under the EU Regulation.
