When to fly

The expensive stretch of the year begins in October when demand rises for autumn travel. Prices gradually decrease through November and December as most passengers return home for holidays. January sees lower fares following the holiday season, continuing into February before reaching their lowest point in March. Book several weeks ahead during these months rather than waiting until departure day approaches.

Arriving — Istanbul

Before landing in Istanbul, decide which airport suits your final destination better.

Allow extra time if arriving at the international terminal with connecting flights on separate tickets.
