One of the best and biggest airports in the world. It is very easy to reach by metro and private airport buses. The interiors are spacious, airy and enjoyable. It has a very nice architectural structure. Although it is one of the busiest airports in the world, you can travel without any problems. The entire operation is very well planned and executed. It is the most awarded airport in the international arena in recent years.

We faced a problem with our tranzit zone Frankfurt. Istanbul airport’s staff didn’t allow us to fly to Frankfurt because of no visa. We wondered?!? They demanded us visa for transit airport. Interestingly, a week after that our second group countymates flew from Istanbul to Frankfurt (as a transit airport) without any problem.

Very comfortable place. If I need to have a stop in my trip so I prefer the Istanbul Airport. The only problem is internet with tickets 🎫 i was a witness when people didn’t load their back tickets and didn’t made a trip because of the verification process. Anyway recommend the airport area

One of the most modern airports in the world. Spacious, clean, and very well organized despite its enormous size. Plenty of shops and dining options. Security is efficient and signage is clear, though walking distances can be long—so plan ahead. Overall, a great travel hub for international connections.

Everything is too expensive. If you are hungry or thirsty you need to pay a fortune to buy food or drink . The exchange points are cheating people. There are too many shops, it looks like grand bazaar and everything extremely expensive. In this airport everything organized to rob the passengers. Don’t buy anything.

The airport is too big You get tired while just getting off the plane before passport control. And if you also have a bag, then it can be a real torment. You have to pay for everything, for every little thing. Like a shopping cart, Wi-Fi. It's free in my country. That's why it's wild for me. There was a situation when I was in transit through Istanbul. And I had to pick up all three suitcases. I didn't have any cash and my card doesn't work anywhere except in my country. I had to be a beggar. To pay for the cart. The impressions are not very good in general. I hope I won't come back again.

On purpose they are putting the most demanded transfer flights on different sides of the airport to push you to pay for buggy services. The most expensive drinks and meals among all airports.

Very nice airport. Very clean with a lot of nice shops and boutiques. Fast service,nice people. I give them 4 stars only because of wi-fi available only for 1 hour.

Large and hectic. However give yourself plenty of time and exercise patience. Less than 2.5 hours for layover between flights almost impossible to catch the next flight.

Huge place. Some good shopping option but most of the brands are outrageously expensive. Also 1 hour free wifi is not too great if u r stuck there. Always the option to buy more but still everywhere else it's free wifi all the time

The biggest airport in the world but there is no train inside the airport so you have to walk a lot until you fell tired

It's very big. Too big! Feet start to hurt before you can get to the gate. Prices on food are super high, but that's what airports do. Overall I never had problems with my flights.
