Ajet Did Not Inform Me of My Early Flight Departure

On February 3, 2024, at 23:40, I missed my Antalya-Sabiha Gökçen Airport flight because it departed early. I was not informed about the early departure through any communication channels such as SMS or email. When I asked the gate officer how a flight could leave before its scheduled time, they dismissed me, repeating that the gate was closed. Despite arriving at the airport 20 minutes before the flight and completing check-in 2-2.5 hours earlier, I was not notified. I repeatedly contacted customer service, but they had no information about the early departure, giving me different flight times with each call. At the airport, I was threatened by an Ajet representative. When I asked for the gate officer's ID badge, they refused, sarcastically saying, "Should I block it with my jacket?" before reluctantly showing it while partially covering the badge with their finger. Afterward, I was redirected to ticket agents, who rudely raised their voices and verbally harassed me. Despite not using any offensive or inappropriate language, I was repeatedly threatened with police intervention. This incident is recorded on security cameras and can be verified through audio recordings. The gate incident occurred between 23:20 and 23:30. I am a cancer patient and had an important hospital appointment in the morning, which I missed due to this situation. I have evidence to support all my claims, yet instead of being helped, customer service repeatedly told me, "There is nothing we can do," displaying a careless and disrespectful attitude. I demand that this matter be thoroughly investigated and that all responsible individuals be held accountable.

No response is made to me in any way, the call center has been keeping me waiting for 15 minutes. No one stands behind the company. There has been no sanction, I still had to buy a new ticket after sleeping at the airport for 24 hours, and due to the time difference, 2 days of my car rental is being charged to my credit card. Because of the mistake that is not backed up, I have to pay 10,000 TL more within 1 day.

The feedback from Ajet company is so slow that there is still no response. Not even a simple apology letter was sent. The call center is very inconsistent. They say 2-7 business days as if mocking, and in addition, it was said in the email that it could exceed 7 days. Today, based on the information I received at Antalya airport, it was said that civil aviation is the highest authority, and I will send an email there. I will send an email through a respected acquaintance in the aviation field. I will do everything I can to complain through all channels such as court, Consumer Arbitration Committee, etc.

They still haven't gotten back to me, they haven't contacted me in any way.
