Istanbul’s main airport is the Istanbul Airport, located 35 km northwest of the city centre, on its European side. The airport has been serving since April 2019, when it took over from Istanbul-Atatürk.

Istanbul Airport has only one terminal, built to handle around 90 million passengers annually. This makes it the biggest of this type of construction in the world located under one roof. The airport expansion plan is said to add additional terminals, allowing the airport to handle as many as 200 million passengers annually by 2030.

Regardless of the class booked, the offer will vary between routes. When flying in the economic class, you may try a hot or cold dish. Select your food from the European menu with the best elements of Turkish cuisine. Turkish Airlines won't have their passengers hungry so on long-distance flights you get sandwiches and cookies. All international flights treat their passengers with special dishes.

If you chose the comfort class you'll receive a welcome drink and a menu with fresh, heart-warming food, sweets, fruit and selection of cheese. You can order food once again before the landing.
