Turkish Airlines has received the Best Food and Beverage in Europe award at the 2026 APEX Awards. The flag carrier collected the honour for the fifth time during the ceremony held on 10 June in Dublin, Ireland. Passengers rated the airline through anonymous feedback on more than one million flights.
The awards relied on verified passenger assessments collected in partnership with TripIt by Concur. Travellers scored airlines across seat comfort, cabin service, food and beverage, in-flight entertainment and Wi-Fi. Turkish Airlines operates a fleet of 545 aircraft to 358 destinations in 133 countries.
Ahmet Olmuştur shared “We are very glad to be recognized by APEX as the Best Food and Beverage airline in Europe for the fifth time. This award speaks to the passion and craftsmanship our teams pour into every meal we serve above the clouds, starting from menu design to the moment it reaches our guests. Our heartfelt thanks go to our guests for their continued confidence in us, and to every member of the Turkish Airlines family who brings this experience to life.”
Joe Leader shared “Turkish Airlines receiving the 2026 APEX Best Food and Beverage in Europe award reflects far more than excellence on a tray. It celebrates an airline that has transformed inflight dining into a true expression of culture, hospitality, craftsmanship, and national pride.”
