Once I'm in Istanbul airport, where do I go after clearing customs to get some money converted into Lira? I assume I'll need it to pay my taxi to the ferry and for the ferry as well. I'll be tight on time...

Right before you get your Visa, there is a booth where you can change your money too. It is very convenient. Just follow the crowd!!

Hi,
Which airport are we talking about is it Ataturk or Sabiha Gochen? here is the links for each airport Istanbul Ataturk http://www.ataturkairport.com/eng/index.php and Sabiha Gochen http://www.sgairport.com/havaalani/eng/start.asp Check the airport guide they will show you which part of the airport you can change your money into New Turkish Lira. On a final note the exchange rate is alot better in Turkey than the U.K. I have actually made money on my exchange by changing at a bank in Turkey. I would use Denzibank mainly because my fiancee works there  Hope the information helps!

there are a few change offices at the Ataturk Airport. The rate is not the best so i advise you not to change much money.

My flight info says "Istanbul." That's it! It's American Airlines. I assumed it was Ataturk. The airport code is IST and that's Ataturk, right?
This is going to sound ridiculous, but I'll ask anyway...they look at/stamp my passport, then I go somewhere else to get a visa, then somewhere else to get Lira. Is this correct? I can only imagine the lines...

IST is Ataturk. They will stamp your passport when you get your visa.
