Cheap flights from Tenerife to Istanbul

The summer months and holiday periods around Christmas tend to carry higher prices across most European routes. February stands out as the cheapest month to fly between these cities, with fares available from October through September in total. Booking several weeks ahead usually secures better rates than last-minute purchases.

This route features a mix of low-cost and full-service carriers spanning ten airlines. Easyjet, Wizz Air, and Wizz Air Malta operate as budget options, while Iberia, Lufthansa, Air Europa, Transavia Airlines, and Royal Air Maroc provide full-service connections. Air Serbia rounds out the available choices.

Arriving late in the day at Istanbul Airport or Sabiha Gokcen changes how you reach the city centre. Both airports offer public transport links, but schedules vary by time of arrival. Consider travel time into town when choosing between these two destinations based on your flight schedule.
