one more thing about taxis:

one of the things they like the most is (esp airport taxis): if they understand that you do not know the city (istanbul is not a city, it is a big country), they take you to a istanbul tour :)))) they extend the route....

so, when you take a taxi, esp from airport, tell them that ''YOU KNOW THE ROUTE'', make them feel that you know the route.
cheers.

Came today after midnight from Sabiha to Istiklal street - started at around 00:20. 480 YTL according to counter (22 USD). At the same time roads were free of traffic as it was at night. Took 40-45 minutes

Download the Uber or BiTaski app.
You'll get a set fare from the airport to the place where you are staying. No haggling and no getting ripped off.

The club have been advised by the British Consulate in Istanbul that passport will be required as ID.

The club have raised this as a risk and the consulate will have extra staff on standby should someone lose their passport. A replacement would cost £100 and take three days to process.

If the worst happens I could do another three days in Istanbul.

Daft question no doubt, but first flight I’ve been on where this is the case. Checked in online for my Pegasus flight, and apparently mobile barcode service is not available for this particular flight. Just a case of rocking up at the airport earlier than usual to get a paper boarding card from the Pegasus desk? Have no check-in luggage so would be annoying having to queue behind everyone checking bags in just to get a boarding card. Cheers in advance

Have you used the Pegasus app?
I got the same message as you on the website but could check in properly on the app and got a barcode.

Is that for stadium access?

Anyone know how long check-in times are at Manchester Airport at the moment? Flying out from T2 this afternoon at 2pm.
