Layover In Istanbul: The Ultimate Guide 2024
The main disadvantage of having a layover at Istanbul Airport is the fifty plus kilometers between it and Istanbul city or any other visit-worthy local attractions. That said though, if you're on a short layover in Istanbul Airport there are still a few things at the airport or nearby you can do to help pass the time. If you have a long layover then you'll be able to make the trip into Istanbul itself to explore the Turkish city that's spread over two separate continents.
