pavlo Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 The point is that am early bird on airport in Istanbul heading to Krung Thep - well am sure there is a lot of us - but walking around six and half hours in airport is not my kind of favored waste of time So is there any one who has been useing his/hers time and founded maybe something how to spend that time on premises. Eaten and drinking is not on option and with their prices - huh Travelling in the end of August, thank you in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lite Beer Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I did it last August. Not a lot to do. The usual shops and eating places. You can always make yourself sick from stuffing free samples of Turkish Delight. There is a Hotel with days rooms by the hour. I forget how much but it was a horrendous price.

andiwilson Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I thought about doing a trip to Bangkok via Istanbul before and did a little research. Istanbul is if I remember correctly only twenty five minutes from the airport on a bus that doesn't cost that much. Even if you only get to walk about in Istanbul for a couple of hours I guess it is better than being in the airport. For anyone with a longer layover there are free tours for Turkish Airline passengers that last six hours, for details see their website. Hope this helps.
