By Air Turkey's primary international gateway by air is Istanbul's Ataturk International Airport . Ankara's Esenboga Airport handles a comparatively limited selection of international flights, and there are also direct charters to Mediterranean resort hot spots like Antalya in the peak summer and winter seasons. In 2005 customs at Istanbul international airport was rearranged to the effect that one is now required to go through customs and "enter the country" there, rather than first travel to a regional destination and pass customs there. Luggage will generally travel to the final destination without further ado, but on occasion you may have to point it out to be sure it will be transported on. The information given by flight attendants in the incoming flight may not be adequate so until the procedure is changed (it is supposed to be only temporary) it is wise to inquire on Istanbul airport. Since one must pass security again for any inland flight, it is advisable to hurry and not spend too much time in transit. Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW ) Airport Transportation From SAW, Havas coaches depart regularly to Levent, Taksim, and Kozyatagi for about 7-10 YTL. If you arrive in the middle of the night, you can move to the departure hall after passing customs and rest on very comfortable seats — you will even find coin-operated Japanese massage chairs. Then, at about 4:00 AM (but better ask to be sure) the first Havas bus will take you to town. The Havas bus schedule is sometimes linked to the arrival/departure times of planes. Turkish Airlines (THY): THY
has regular flights on Boeing 737-400’s,
737-500’s, Rj 100’s, and Airbus 310-200’s, 310-300’s, and 340-300’s
to Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, Antalya, Adana, Trabzon and Dalaman from
principal
capitals and major cities of the world. Lufthansa Airlines: From the east coast of the USA, Lufthansa along with the Star Alliance has very reasonably priced more.. By Coach By Sea Passenger Ferries: Apart from numerous cruises in the Mediterranean, several foreign shipping companies have regular services to the ports of Trabzon, Samsun, Istanbul, Dikili, Izmir, Cesme, Kusadasi, Bodrum, Marmaris, Antalya, Alanya, Mersin and Iskenderun.
By Rail You can still travel from Europe to Turkey by train, although these days this is more of historical or perhaps even romantic interest than fast or practical. The famed Orient Express from London now travels no further than Vienna, but you can take the daily TransBalkan from Budapest (Hungary) via Bucharest (Romania), a two-night journey with a scheduled 3-hour stop in Bucharest. 1st/2nd class sleepers and couchettes are available, but the train lacks a restaurant car so stock up on supplies. From/to Greek stations there are two daily services, from Istanbul to Pythion every morning and from Istanbul to Thessaloniki every night. There are also daily trains to Istanbul from Sofia (Bulgaria). Turkey is in Zone G of Inter Rail along with Greece, Italy and Slovenia. There are also once-weekly services from Istanbul to Aleppo and Damascus in Syria, Tabriz and Tehran in Iran. Train journeys can be made to Istanbul directly from and via some of
the major cities in Europe. The journey from London to Istanbul takes three nights, using Eurostar to Paris, the 'Orient Express' overnight to Vienna, a connecting 'EuroCity' to Budapest and a direct couchette car from Budapest to Istanbul (or more comfortable sleepers with an additional transfer in Bucharest). Departures from London are daily. The recommended journey is now via Bucharest because of the effects of the recent war on more.. TURKISH AIRLINE OFFICES ABROAD |
