I Missed My Flight Due to Queue

On 08.07.2023 at 10:45, I had a flight from Warsaw to Adana. Despite arriving at the airport 1 hour and 15 minutes (09:30) before the flight, I missed it. Let me explain why; there was a long queue at the baggage drop-off, and the screen displayed a THY Istanbul flight. I thought it was delayed and joined the queue. I waited for about 15-20 minutes. Suddenly, the THY Istanbul flight disappeared from the screen and was replaced by another airline's flight. I was confused and when I called customer service, they told me, 'But you arrived 1 hour and 15 minutes before, it's too late, ma'am.' According to your website, being there at least 1 hour before the flight should have been sufficient. There were 5 other people in the queue with me, and they were told, 'You should have run to drop off your baggage.' How was I supposed to know I needed to run? Besides my inconvenience at Warsaw airport, I went back to THY to make arrangements, but they couldn't access my student account. As a result, I bought another ticket from a different airline for ₺8000. Later, I had a return ticket from Adana to Warsaw on 10.08.2023 at 12:45, but I couldn't check in. When I arrived at the airport, they told me I had to pay because I missed my previous flight and needed to file a report in the system. I paid another ₺6000, and I am a student. I don't recall ever experiencing such inconvenience in my life. Not only did I miss the flight for a ridiculous reason, but I also paid taxes for a flight I didn't board. And I can't even find out what I paid so much for. I want a refund of the money I paid. In summary, I traveled from a different city to Warsaw with 3 suitcases, missed the flight because I didn't know I had to run, and ended up stranded. On top of that, you charged me another ₺6000 in taxes for missing the flight. I am a student, and I want action taken regarding my inconvenience and a refund of the fees I paid. I paid a total of ₺26000 for my round-trip ticket. When I wrote to the THY complaint form, they did nothing but mention sequential tickets. Despite being a student, they are taking no action.
