A huge and well-equipped territory. Comfortable, clean, cool. And almost everything is clear). English speaking staff. Free Wi-Fi can be obtained by taking the access code according to the passport at the designated construction sites.
There are many brand stores, duty free.
It takes about an hour and a half by bus from the airport to Istanbul. But there seems to be a subway.

A beautiful, huge airport. Everything is there, a large duty free zone just with huge boutiques. It is advisable to arrive in advance, because there is always a large flow of people and long distances between check-in, check-out and departure points.

One of the best business halls I've been to. The airport is convenient, similar in layout to Savarnabum, I have flown from here many times. A pleasant hourly hotel on site. The only thing is, I missed my flight once due to a delay that led to the transfer of the gate, which was not announced by voice, and I did not pay attention to the scoreboard on the way to my gate, as a result, I came there, there is no plane and it is on another gate at the other end of the terminal, I did not have time to get there. Purely a joint of the information service. A couple of weeks ago, a similar situation almost happened, but I already learned this feature of the airport, and the replacement gate turned out to be nearby.

A modern airport, very large-scale and beautiful, the distances to the terminals are not small at all, there is a high-speed metro line near the exit. The VIP area was crowded, we had to look for empty seats, but the food and drinks were quite even.

Everything is fine and clear here. A very large airport with all amenities. It's convenient to get to the city by metro!
Boarding halls are often moved and not reported, you need to keep track on the scoreboard!

It's a great airport, and the prices are reasonable. The toilets are clean, and cleaning is done regularly. In toilets, the supply of paper towels and liquid soap is automatic. It's a great place, there are a lot of check-in counters.

Istanbul airport is huge, yes! It seems that you can get lost there for a few days. And there are always a lot of people, as if everyone decided to fly somewhere. At least there are pointers, otherwise we would have to wander around like in a maze. I wonder how many people pass through this airport every day? It's probably possible to populate an entire country!

The largest airport in Europe. And most importantly, you will not get lost, everything is intuitive, you can use the free Internet upon arrival. There is a subway at the exit, and a taxi, a yellow taxi is cheaper than a blue one, so keep in mind, and by the way, a taxi to the city costs 1500 rubles. If you are light, I recommend the subway.

Do not be afraid, look at the scoreboard and follow the numbers on the pillars, and you will find your gate) the airport is large, there are many shops and cafes, if you go to the gate at the very end, then 30 minutes. Therefore, you need to take time with a reserve. The airport has everything you need to travel. It is modern. There is free Wi-Fi, but a ticket is taken in a special box for 1 hour. On departure, the second floor, on arrival, the first floor.
If you are lost or do not know where to go and what to do, go to the managers, they stand with badges, show a ticket or passport, it will show you where to go

A truly huge airport, you can feel the scale compared even with our airports. Everything is quite convenient. Prices, of course, as in many airports, are quite high.

The best airport I've seen so far. Huge, but comfortable, clean. Stands with touch screens where you can manually enter a search for your flight or scan a ticket and get information about departure or delay. You can also dictate a voice query. Charge your cell phones at almost every waiting island. There are many places where you can have a snack. Duty Free is a great choice. I went to get some perfume, but I didn't take it, because the prices are the same in Letual. The toilets are clean.

Huge, everything is intuitively clear. Most of all, I was pleasantly surprised by the animal room. There is a tray for cats, a toilet for dogs, feeders and drinkers for all kinds of animals. It's so cute, we need to take note in Russia too

The airport is new, big, but not too convenient.
Wi-fi is only available for an hour on a boarding pass, prices in the catering areas are off the scale, public transport was forgotten to get to the city center-only a taxi.
In my opinion, it is not difficult to organize shuttle buses to the city center until they brought the metro line to the airport.
They claim to be the best airport in 2024. in some categories, but
everything is Turkish, just pay for everything.
They are taking advantage of the situation-there are a lot of flights through them now.
But if there was a choice, I would prefer many airports in Europe to Istanbul.

The airport itself is huge, very well equipped, clean. Navigation is present, it's pretty easy to figure out. But at the same time very, very expensive. The hotel and food at the airport are 5 times more expensive than in the city, if you have a long wait, then you will have to fork out a lot. Airport staff communicate exclusively in Turkish or English, which is not bad, but since there are no airline representatives at the airport, check-in and admission to the flight are carried out by airport staff, then Turkish and English become a problem for many, since the airport is international, people from different countries arrive and not all speak English and much less especially Turkish. It would be good if the airline staff were present, since in my case the flight was postponed and the information on the scoreboard was not updated, it was a whole quest to find out clearly what happened to our flight

A special place for me) I love this airport, everything is convenient and clear. Even in spite of its size. There is a place to relax, eat, buy souvenirs or medicines. It is convenient to get to the city by Havaist, now there is also a metro.

It is big, modern, but you could not be greedy on the Internet, just one hour is free.Half of the charging columns are broken.Luggage storage has been turned from automatic to a place for business and the cross to find them with suitcases is still the one, there are no interactive airport maps available in the arrival and departure areas, only pointers.Two large screens in the arrivals area are slightly duplicated and people are standing in front of them waiting

As always on top. There are many places to sit and places to charge your phone. There are comfortable places on the second floor to lie down. And there is also a hotel. Although it is cheaper to take a taxi and take a ride to the neighboring village and rent a room there. ~~300tl one way and the number is 1000-1500tl.

The airport is very large, when transferring, study the scheme in advance and make a time reserve. We took off from St. Petersburg in good weather, but there were two flight delays. We flew by Aeroflot, we were very well fed. A taxi in Istanbul from the airport to the old city area costs about $ 30, but sometimes the price is significantly overstated. There is an exchange office at the airport, you can change it a little, but the course, of course, is not very good. We arrived in the evening and had to change to have dinner. Overall, a very friendly attitude and safe

It's an inconvenient airport, it's long, navigation leaves much to be desired, nothing is intuitively clear, but for a minute, I fly around the world quite often, there is something to compare it with. the exit to the city is not at all obvious, it is not easy for a non-Turk to pass through passport control, queues are not even in season, because there are very few booths for foreigners, but dozens of empty booths for Turks, and where they all are, they are not. buying an Istanbul metro card is not an easy task, I found the only device on the 1st floor in the distance, where there is parking for cars. Where is the logic at all?

A very large airport. I recommend that you come with a good amount of time. There are a lot of people, queues everywhere: for registration, passport control.
There are children's areas.
There is a lot of duty free, a large selection of everything.

A large airport. There are few toilets, long queues, especially in the women's room. Passport control and all sorts of security posts are carried out quickly, despite the high workload. The staff is on top. There are few places where you can sit down and wait. Overall, a pleasant impression. There is a subway nearby. The entrance for a taxi is also convenient.

The most beautiful, newest airport is Istanbul IST. Of course it's very big. I think you can get lost there. But if you don't panic, everything is clear. Lots of informants, pointers. There are many cafes and shops. There is a children's area.

The airport was recognized as the best airport in the world in 2024. I'm telling you what the best airport has.:
- sun beds instead of seats before check-in (there are few of them, they are all occupied)
- a huge duty-free zone, in which, as well as throughout the airport, they do not announce landings, departures, etc.
- wi-fi is free for only 1 hour, then some crazy prices (I may be confused, but in my opinion, 16€/hour). Moreover, TurkTelekom has a monopoly on communication at the airport – not a single cafe or store has its own network.
- there are many counters where you can ask for help if you need something (but they won't give you 100% wifi for another hour)

A huge transport hub where planes land and take off every minute. At the same time, the airport itself is very successful, everything is clear, there are places for both recreation and shopping. There is even a hotel inside the airport!!! The cost of a cup of coffee at the airport has already exceeded the cost of coffee at St. Mark's Square. It's a good place to arrive, transfer and immediately fly away.

The new airport has many boutiques of the most famous brands. A huge airport. There is a place to eat, a place to sit. But the prices for everything are cosmic. And it was not possible to pay with our card.
If you want to take a nap, then for 8€/hour you can rent a "coffin". 3€ on top for the linen. But again, only card payment. There are two hotels right at the airport. But the prices there are for rooms from 300€/day. There is a small capsule hotel with a shared shower and toilet... The rooms are small:1 bed, TV, air conditioning, socket, table, linen. It is very decent to relax there, but the price is also close to 22€/hour. But at least they accept cash there. Dollars. But not the coins. They don't take any coins, only paper ones. But they also make sure that the bills are in good condition.

A huge luxury airport. Everything is well distributed. There are no queues. Lots of lounges. But fitness in the form of jogging will have to be done. Because flights to Russia are always from the furthest gates.

This is a sooo big airport! The scale is amazing, it's a city within a city, there's almost everything here! Shops, restaurants, recreation areas. Thoughtful navigation, which is incredibly convenient for tourists from any country. There are even prayer rooms here! It was very valuable for me to have smoking rooms. Everything is thought out here!!! It's amazing! But still, I was missing something. Flying home after a three-day weekend, I really wanted soup😂 I do not pretend to sour cabbage soup, at least chicken broth😂
I admire this airport.

A huge new airport. A whole city under one roof. There are cafes, shops, playgrounds for children and recreation areas with sofas. I was especially pleased with the presence of comfortable areas where you can work on your laptop and charge your phone. The only drawback is sometimes the huge distances from the check-in desk to the boarding gate. Therefore, I recommend arriving at the airport in advance. And have a nice flight to everyone.

Don't be afraid that it's huge! Read the signs and the scoreboard, keep track of the time. And get your things! If the transfer is long, I recommend laying 10 thousand rubles (100€) per person - this is 6 hours of magical sleep in comfortable Sleep pods located near sector D. If there are no free capsules, do not leave the counter - free ones appear quickly, we waited for two capsules for 10 minutes. Yes, about food - this is a disappointment. Coffee, pastries, salads are terrible, fresh is unloaded. But there is a McDonald's - it is cozy, reliable and without oriental flavor 😄

A beautiful airport. Interesting constructive and design solutions for buildings and structures on the territory of IST, as well as duty free shops. Sometimes they don't announce the landing. Given the long distances that need to be traveled to the gate, you need to lay enough time to reach them

It's big, beautiful, and comfortable. There are no public address announcements at the airport. As for me, it's even better, a little quieter. There are relaxation areas where you can even sleep on a sun lounger.

I really liked the airport. Everything is clear on the scoreboard, the signs. Even without knowledge of English and Turkish, everything is clear. There are a lot of people, and there are a lot of people queuing to cross the border. But there are a lot of windows and they work fast. In Moscow, they stood longer, although there were fewer people.

Firstly, free WiFi for only 1 hour, which you can hardly connect to with a Russian SIM card, when a transfer is inconvenient for 5-6 hours, of course, I have never seen such a thing at any water airport in the world. Secondly, the distances at the airport. Thirdly, the problem was to get a thing forgotten a couple of days ago on the plane, you need to go through 33 circles of hell to pick it up. The window is located in the basement, where 5 employees will take turns asking what the thing looks like, take turns leaving, conferring, returning, asking again, etc., and these were just white sneakers in a transparent bag, I even showed them a photo. I spent about an hour in this window. It still needs to be found, airport staff constantly redirect to different points of the hub. 4,5,6 -Not a single ATM on the second floor, the exchangers are all closed and some kind of rundown cafe at the very end of the floor. Far from Istanbul, you can't order an Uber at the airport, the local taxi mafia doesn't let you. The same taxi drivers cheat every time when calculating both from the airport and to the airport) It's in their blood

A hefty multi-level airport! I recommend that everyone carefully read the signs and information boards!
Arrival - to the first level, from there descent down to buses and shuttles. Departure is the second level (we look at the information signs indicating the tilt of the airplane in the right direction =))
Life hack: in the departure waiting area, before passing through the inspection and passport control, in all this vast territory, at first glance, there were very few cafes where you could have a snack. We confidently walk to the inspection area - on the right we see an escalator to the upper level, climbing to which we see a selection of other cafes, including chain ones!
