Cheap flights from London to Konya

March is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar also shows fares for September, October, November, December, January and August, so autumn and winter give you the widest choice. Spring and summer are busier with Turkish holiday travel and school breaks, and connecting fares climb with them. Midweek departures and early-morning connections are usually quieter than Friday and Sunday flights. Book a few weeks ahead for spring and summer, and earlier if your dates fall near religious holidays, when seats on the Turkish carriers tighten first.

No airline flies London to Konya nonstop, so every result you see is a connecting ticket. Pegasus, Easyjet, Sun Express and Ajet are the low-cost and leisure names that show up most often, so read carefully what each fare covers before you add anything to it. Turkish Airlines, Lufthansa, Lufthansa City Airlines, Air Dolomiti, Air Serbia and Eurowings are the full-service carriers on the route, where the fare you buy decides how much is bundled in. Compare the conditions before you choose, because what is included changes the real cost of the trip.

Konya has one airport, Konya Airport, and it handles every arrival for the city, so there is no second airport to weigh up. It is not a city-centre airport, so plan the last leg: taxis, private transfers and shuttle services are the usual ways in, and what runs depends on your arrival time. Because every flight from London connects, when you land depends on where the stop is and how long the layover runs, and a late connection can leave you with fewer transfer options. Sort the ride into town before you fly, and keep a card or some cash handy for it.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which London airport your fare leaves from, because Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and London City are not interchangeable.
• Confirm your connection is on one ticket, or leave a long buffer if you are booking the legs separately.
• See what the fare includes for bags before you compare prices, since low-cost tickets often charge for the cabin bag.
• Check passport and visa rules for Turkey, and that your passport has enough validity left for the trip.
• Fly in March if price matters most, and look at the price calendar before you lock in dates.
