Cheap flights from Palma de Mallorca to Istanbul

The expensive stretch comes first: school holidays, Christmas and the summer months in Istanbul push demand up, while February is the cheapest month shown for this route. Work back from those peaks by checking the months around them, and prefer midweek departures when your dates are flexible. For busy periods, compare fares a few weeks ahead rather than waiting for last-minute deals, and use the price calendar to test nearby dates on either side of your plan.

The fare you see may only cover the seat; bags, seat choice, priority boarding and meals often cost extra on low-cost tickets, while full-service fares usually bundle more. Air Serbia, Aegean Airlines, Air Europa express, Easyjet, Jet2, Transavia France, Volotea, Vueling Airlines, Wizz Air and Wizz Air Malta all appear on this route, and with no direct flights available every option connects somewhere, so compare connection times and ticket conditions as carefully as the base fare. Check whether the connection is protected on one ticket or self-transfer on two, and whether each airline's baggage rules match what you are taking.

Istanbul Airport is large, so allow time for walking, security and baggage reclaim before you plan a transfer or meeting. Sabiha Gokcen is the other airport and the choice between them affects your route into the city and your connection time. From either, expect airport buses, taxis and ride-hailing into central Istanbul, with heavier traffic at peak hours; if your ticket uses the wrong airport for a connection, the transfer is your problem, not the airline's.
