Transfer / security in Istanbul Ataturk airport after 29/06/2016

Just flew yesterday. Everything In Istanbul airport is as if nothing has happened. The incident wasn’t even mentioned once. And there was no security check for international to international transfer. All in all, it took us 15 minutes to get from gate 223 (arriving flight) to gate 206 (departing flight) – with three little children in tow 🙂

I have no first-hand information but this is what I can gather online:

  • Turkish Airlines currently has the following in their website, which you already know:

Flight operations at İstanbul Atatürk International Airport have been restarted. We kindly ask our passengers to check the latest flight information through flight status service at our official website turkishairlines.com.

The go-to place for this kind of stuff is Flyertalk and the related thread seems to be this one. Most of the discussion is about what actually happened but I was able to find the following accounts

A lot is still going to change over the next two days until you’ll actually be flying but that thread might be a good resource if you weed through the unrelated information.

As of now and as of the information the airport seems to be fairly crowded but I don’t see mention of additional security measures airside and flights seem to be on-time-ish.

Safe travels!
