Ah!
You didn't make it clear that you wanted to start from England and not Poland, South Africa or anywhere else

I understand that Easy Jet are now flying from England to İstanbul

Usually the cheapest flights are with KLM, going from a local English airport to Amsterdamn than transfering onto a flight to Istanbul.

Actually there is unless you're willing to pay a lot for regular flights. Maybe I've missed something but to my best knowledge there are no cheap flights Poland-Turkey

KLM cheap? Well, not from Holland it is. They belong to the most expensive airlines from here (I live in Holland). When I go to Turkey I use Turkish airlines or Austrian Airlines, if only a ticket. When within a package deal I use Corendon. They leave from several cities in Holland and from Dusseldorf in Germany. I have heard that leaving from Belgium (Liege) can be very cheap as well. Maybe you can combine things?

I've mentioned this site somewhere else recently -anyway go to...http://www.travelsupermarket.com/travelmerge/travelsearch.aspx?package=4

You enter your preferred airport and destination and it searches through all flights (charter and schedule) and finds you the cheapest.

Hi,
I just found a super deal flying with Swiss airlines to Istanbul in december only £92.50 the catch yes little one is you fly to Zurich first then change for Istanbul also the time is early flight in morning from London Heathrow for the value though it is too good to miss.

How long does the trip take in total then? Do you have to wait a long time in Zurich before you catch your flight to Istanbul?

The flight change is only one hour I am really amazed just how good the price is, for a little change and early morning start this is worth it. Where are you flying from?

I fly directly from Brussels to Istanbul, but I have seen cheaper options with a stopover in another town (sometimes London, which is a real detour for me ). You are lucky, the deals I've seen have a flight change of up to 7 hours.. :-S And when I'm only going to Istanbul for like 5 days, I prefer to pay a bit more and spend less time on travelling and waiting. But if I would be staying for a longer period of time, I wouldn't care too much about flight changes and waiting

Yes I understand when you have such little time you need to get there without too much delay. I am going for 15 days so I can be a little flexible with my times and changes. I do feel that some airlines really do charge too much when it comes to the difference in flights I always shop around and do find some great bargins. Hve a good trip!

Easyjet are the cheapest. Depending on your dates they can be as little as £40 return from Luton.

But they fly to the Asian side and not Attaturk and if you are staying on the European side you need to consider the cost of the taxi fair. Also dont take the first price at face value - they add on airport tax which can be around £20-30 depending on where you fly from in the UK.

you dont have to take taksi. They have cheap buses. My guess is about 10 Euro to Taksim or Sultan Ahmet
