FAQs - booking Türkiye flights

  • Are there nonstop flights from the US to Turkey?

    You can get nonstop flights to Turkey from any major international airport in the US, including New York (JFK), Los Angeles (LAX), and San Francisco (SFO). Most nonstop flights head into IST and are offered by Turkish Airlines. For those flying from the West Coast, nonstop flights from SFO are faster and much cheaper than those from LAX.

  • What are the common stopover options for flights from the US to Sabiha Gokcen International Airport (SAW)?

    All flights from the US to SAW have at least one layover en route that varies depending on your airline, origin city, and destination airport. Most airlines flying from New York John (JFK) have common stops in Munich (MUC), Brussels (BRU), Milan (MXP), Dubai (DBX), Amsterdam (AMS), and Doha (DIA) depending on your airline. Qatar Airways and Turkish Airlines are some of the major airlines that offer one-stop flights from San Francisco to SAW with a stop in Doha, Paris (CGD), Frankfurt (FRA), or Munich.

  • Which airport should I fly into to be closer to Istanbul’s landmarks?

    Since most tourist hotspots, historical attractions, iconic restaurants, and popular markets exist on the European side of Istanbul, flying into IST puts you much closer to Istanbul’s landmarks. The Hava Bus boarded from the transportation floor should quickly get you to downtown, Taksim, Sultanahmet, or Kadikoy.

  • What is the best airport to fly into Turkey for flights from the US?

    Flights from the US to Turkey usually land at Ankara Esenboga Airport (ESB), Antalya International Airport, Sabiha Gokcen International Airport, and Istanbul Airport. Of all these airports, Istanbul stands out when you consider flights from the US. Not only does the airport receive direct flights from the US, but its amenities also put it ahead of the other airports in the country.

  • Which is the main airport in Istanbul?

    Istanbul is served by two high-functioning international airports, IST and SAW. IST is considered the main airport for several reasons. First, it is the larger and more modern airport and most nonstop flights from the US head into IST. Secondly, IST offers passengers premium lounges, shorter immigration queues, and many restaurant options. Third, you'll get more domestic flight connections from IST than SAW.

  • Is Istanbul International Airport accessible?

    Yes. If you're a passenger with reduced mobility, you can request wheelchair assistance services through your airline. The airport also offers accessible wheelchair-accessible restrooms, stair-free options, and accessible drinking fountains. If you make a reservation for special assistance services at least 48 hours before you travel, you will get the service in less than 15 minutes on the day you fly. Just make a notification using any assistant call phone at the airport. Passengers who arrive at the airport without making a reservation may have to wait for up to 45 minutes to get this service.

  • Will I find cheap public transport at airports in Turkey?

    The two main airports, IST and SAW, have various public transport options for easy access to downtown Istanbul. Taxis are available 24-hours, and there’s a bus from both airports. The transportation floor at IST is two levels below the terminal building’s main floor, and it’s where you’ll purchase bus tickets, while at SAW, you’ll find the buses just outside the main terminal building, and tickets can be purchased on board, so have the local currency.

  • Is there a hotel at Istanbul Airport?

    Yes. YOTEL Istanbul Hotel operates in two locations within the airport, one is before security while the other is in the secure zone of the airport. The first is next to Door 7’s entrance Landslide of the Terminal. The hotel has about 277 sleep cabins and it also offers day rooms in 4-hour blocks. Booking a stay here gives you access to self-service drinks and food and a fitness center. The hotel in the secure zone has about 174 sleep cabins and also offers day rooms.

  • Which airport should I fly into to be close to Turkey’s coastal cities?

    Those flying to Turkey to enjoy its beautiful Mediterranean beaches should fly into Antalya Airport. It is one of Turkey’s international airports with two international terminals and one domestic terminal, and AYT receives flights from the US.

  • How long is the flight to Türkiye?

    An average nonstop flight from the United States to Türkiye takes 14h 35m, covering a distance of 5824 miles. The most popular route is New York - Istanbul with an average flight time of 8h 50m.

  • What is the cheapest flight to Türkiye?

  • Which airlines fly to Türkiye?

    Turkish Airlines, Pakistan International Airlines & IndiGo fly the most frequently from the United States to Türkiye. The most popular route is from New York to Istanbul, and IndiGo, Avianca and Turkish Airlines fly this route the most.

  • What are the most popular destinations in Türkiye?

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Türkiye

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Türkiye flight deals.
  • Most flights from the US to Antalya International Airport (AYT) include a single layover en route. The most common layover cities are Istanbul, Frankfurt, or Munich.
  • Antalya International Airport (AYT) has three terminals, a Domestic Terminal and Terminals 1 and 2 that handle international flights. The facilities and amenities in the terminals are modern and passengers can easily get around the airport via a walkway or Bus Route 600.
  • Those looking for cheap flights to Istanbul should consider flying into Sabiha Gokcen International Airport (SAW) instead of Istanbul Airport (IST). Most US flights to SAW include a layover en route and are much cheaper than those to IST.
  • Looking for a place to relax after your flight to Istanbul Airport (IST)? Head to the IGA Lounge located next to the Passport Control Airside of the International Terminal. This lounge allows you to pay at the door whenever space is available. You can also access the lounge through a prepaid lounge pass.
  • All US citizens flying to Turkey must have a passport with a validity of six months beyond their entry date. US citizens need a visa for stays less than 90 days, and you can get an online tourist visa which is processed in less than 24h.
  • If you’re planning to travel to Istanbul from the US, consider flying with Turkish Airlines. It offers nonstop flights to IST from most cities including San Francisco (SFO), New York (JFK), Miami (MIA), and Chicago (ORD) just to mention a few.
  • If you wish to tour Istanbul in between your flight through Istanbul, you can get a transit visa from your airline (mostly Turkish Airlines) and extend your layover, giving you a chance to leave the airport and explore the city.
  • Get a car rental at Antalya Airport if you’re looking for a great way to explore attractions in the city. Avis, Aytucar, Cizgi, Filo, GoldCar, Budget, and Alamo offer onsite services in the Arrivals Hall of the terminals.
  • If you wish to be closer to the city center, consider flying into Sabiha Gokcen International Airport (SAW) instead of Istanbul Airport (IST). SAW is much closer to downtown Istanbul, and it is also an international airport receiving flights from the US. It offers many domestic flights as well.
  • Consider flying to Adana Sakirpasa International Airport (ADA) if you're looking to explore the Cilicia region. The airport is conveniently close to the city center, just about with the trip taking approximately 10 minutes when using the municipal bus service.

Absolutely nothing flight was cancelled and delayed for 2 days. Barely a heads up I want a full refund

The plane from SNA wouldn’t start after 5 tries. The team gave me an option of flying direct from LAX and giving me a Lyft ride there! Perfect!

Best airline! Always friendly and welcoming. Skyclub was great and loved the fast free wifi on board. I also love that you can pre-order your meal on the app!

Atlanta boarding crew at gate were filled with arrogance and were disrespectful. In flight crew showed indifference to the needs of passengers. This is about the flight from ATL to BDL.

The plane was FREEZING SEATS UNCOMFORTABLE Otherwise smooth Thank you

Boarding was chaotic. I didn’t finish dinner because I went to bed early. Breakfast omelet was overcooked and tasteless but croissant was better than usual. Plane was dirty—crumbs in every seam and lavatory was poorly maintained (paint peeling, etc.) and toilet paper had not been refreshed before takeoff. No cubby for storage in first and seat was narrow.

Boarding was somewhat chaotic. Unable to evaluate crew or food/drink because captain kept them seated due to turbulence. Have no idea if entertainment was offered.

West Jet has a horrible boarding process and the seats have no cushion.

Everything went smoothly. I didn’t like that when I booked in the main cabin my wife and I weren’t seated together. One would think when booking on an option that allows picking your seat. They would put you and your travel partner together. Had to call to get it sorted. They did fix.

The gate area was incredibly short staffed, with one representative manning 4-5 flights, which caused a 3 hr delay in boarding even though the plane was all ready to leave. Other flights also were delayed because of this. The flight crew was awesome and I feel bad for the only gate worker on call, but Delta needs to hire more employees.

I was in business class, without the business class amenities. Large seat with lots of legroom, but no TV or bed. Food was okay, but I did enjoy the Turkish red wine.

Excellent service and comfort from the moment you check in. Flight crew is hyper focused on making passengers comfortable and at ease. It’s like a flying hotel!

Only chicken as a meat dish through out the flight

Nothing really was great as such. Seen other no name airlines perform better.

Quality of service on board was very inconsistent. FA service primarily seemed robotic and they barely engaged with passengers

I’m unclear why I had to pay extra for assigned seats as Turkish airlines did not honor the seating. We were placed across the aisle from each other on TK 34, and were seated behind one another on TK 694. Because my name was misspelled on e-ticket (Klawiter, instead of Klawitter) I could not log onto website to get the connection gate number in Istanbul. The monitors in the airport were a jumbled mess 1/2 Arabic and 1/2 English.

On line check in needs a lot of improvement. I tried and gave up.

Food not good, flight attendants not the best, not accommodating very ruff

the female flight attendant was racist towards me. I could tell she treated the two other passengers next to me with more softness.

Oh my god! For an13 hour flight they serve you food just one time. Also don’t be thirsty they give you a little small cup of soda to drink. They seem like their goal is to feed you one so they don’t have to be bothered with you. It quite surprise for such a long flight there are several times to eat at least three and the food was well lackluster. The food and lack of offering drinks which were always hot no ice provided.

Not a fan of the diagonal partially enclosed business class seats or how they have to be converted to beds manually by crew. I prefer more isolation and user control for switching to lie flat.

No lounge access with “United First” ticket. False alarm about late flight, jeopardizing connection. Wrong meal. Loose power socket would not hold plug, could not charge device. In-flight access to text messaging did not work. Toilet seat on plane would not stay up.

We ended up with seats in the very back. So they did not recline. Have no idea why, we reserved and checked in very early. The isles were very narrow and the seats had very little leg room. But they did give us water, and a snack.

Energetic crew - flight full of swiftied going to Taylor's opening show in Paris! Long lines for bathroom made out kind of suck though

Check in etc was very good. As for on the plane, it was like flying in a freezer. It was so cold, i have flown for years and never been so cold on a plane. Staff on board said its always cold when flying which is a load of rubbish. They wouldnt put any heating on and now i have the flu because of this .

I’ve had a couple flights this week on United that were delayed by an hour or more

Flight was delayed 2.5 hours - a big deal on an overnight when you plan to sleep.

I feel like they have upgraded the app since I last flew United and I found it to be super helpful. I had stopped flying United unless absolutely necessary and my experience on this trip indicates they have been working hard to improve their services.

Surprisingly easy! I was hesitant to try this, but the cost swayed me. I actually felt like I had less stress than all the taxiing and possible delays that occur with short regional flights where you spend less time in the air than getting to and from the plane..

This flight was delayed multiple times and eventually canceled around 2-3ish. Original take off time was around 10:30am. By 3, there were no other options out of Houston, so stuck in Houston for from 3pm - 11am the next day.

Everything could be better. The plain was in Orlando for 3 hours prior to boarding. After boarding all the passengers they found out that plane has a mechanical problem. After an hour the problem was solved, the pilot comes on and states, (We have to go back to the gate and take on more fuel!) Are you kidding me???? Who they have for pilots, Boy scouts?? I barely made my connecting flight to Vienna, but my suitcase did not. I'm still waiting for it, in Gyor, Hungary. Am I having fun yet?? Other passenger were in the same binned. I travelled all over the world both for business and pleasure with all types of airlines. By far of all the carriers I travelled with, Discover is the worst. I'm contemplating to bight the bullet and go back to the US with a different carrier. For International flights, the seats are made for little people. The person in front of me had his seat reclined the whole way, I felt like he was sitting in my lap. For closing, I would not let my dog travel with Discover, yet alone recommend it to an other person. Does it sound like I'm frustrated, Think about having to travel back to the US with them. I'm sure I'll not hear back from you, because nobody wants to hear about bad news, but with all the hype Discover puts out there about their services, nothing could be further from the truth.

Only problem we experienced was not anything to do with Lufthansa. When changing planes in Frankfurt we spent over an hour on passport control line. Lufthansa did a marvelous job on everything from keeping me informed via texts, to terrific cabin crew.

Bordón could be bettet if the company say before boarding the order of the different groups.

Checked in is easy and it was a smooth flight from LAX to Munich

There is no recline on flight from DFW to FRA. Middle eastern airways provide better recline option for the same class. FRA to Bangalore has better recline option. I bid 100$ for premium economy, my request was declined. But staff handled it without issues.

The Lufthansa part was wonderful. The short connection flight was not.

German crew were very kind. Food was okay but can be better, especially bread was not good, Garbage collection was very poor.

Awful Terrible staff poor communication Flight delayed for an hour with no apology or explanation and no help re missing connecting flight. Resulted in a 7 hour layover at Munich waiting for another connecting flight. Only 15 euros refreshment voucher given. Will not fly Lufthansa again

Both flights were late for what appeared to be the airline’s not having the planes ready. Arrived over 6 hours late.

The most horrific experience we had with the airline that we had in our life Everything was substandard at best. For just one hot tea they charged 4 euros We paid for Lufthansa months in advance ,to get there they didn’t have us in record and after 4 and a half hours layover we almost we got one seat at the first row and one in the back of the plane On top of that our suitcase was seriously damaged and it’s unusable. Here we are halfway around the world in foreign language having to fix this on our vacation time Would you kindly and quickly resolve this matter

Better food and more space in the seats. Also when doing the web check in both times I was going in to your site the minute you open it and there is not really many seats to choose only to buy!!!

It was ok, not as good as it used to be. The Heathrow connection was a disaster - complete anarchy, unknowledgable and skimpy assistance and signage. Gate crew at next flight was great, held the flight while my wife struggled through security.

It was great! The seats were comfortable, and they fed me during the transatlantic flight, something which I have been missing out on for the past 3 years as I travel to and from school.

This flight was cancelled at the last minute. We were rebooked on another flight but a day later. We lost a day of our vacation and paid for a night in a hotel we couldn’t use. The flights we were rebooked on (both American) messed up our seating on both flights-we didn’t get the seats we had paid for. All in all, a terrible experience.

Lost our bags in Heathrow, We didn’t receive bags in Mallorca for 3 days, out of a 7 day cycling vacation. Really inconvenient and disappointing!

We missed the flight to Barcelona because the flight from Baltimore was delayed. We flew on Vueling VW6653. Our luggage didn’t arrive. Please help us get our luggage. We are staying at Hotel Gran Via in Barcelona

The seats were tiny, being of a fairly petite build, I don’t usually expect to feel crammed and cramped in a seat, but I definitely was on this flight. I couldn’t even bend over to get anything out from under the seat in front and getting up to go to the bathroom at night with the seat backs reclined was nearly impossible. I had to do gymnastics to get over and out. For an airline that does long flights overnight, it’s kind of ridiculous.

Not connecting flights. Missed my flight from Dublin to Liverpool because I arrived at Dublin one hour too late. For this mistake, they offered me a flight from Dublin to Manchester. Thats great and all, but I waste time and money to commute to Liverpool. Be sure to check the time of your connecting flights, because they sure don’t when they sell it to you

Excellent! Great flight attendants, good food (in business class, at least), very comfortable. Touchscreen and remote wasn’t great.

In economy and food was ok, but with limited leg space (and I was in a 2 seat configuration) it was difficult to eat with a tiny seat tray. I spilt wine on my trousers. First time on British Air (I usually fly Turkish Air) and in a 777. Heathrow was pleasant but changing terminals awkward.
