Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about flying from Orlando to Istanbul.

What is the typical flight duration from Orlando to Istanbul?

The route from Orlando to Istanbul runs about 5,870 miles. There is no scheduled nonstop service between the two cities, so the journey requires a connection.
Methodology
Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

Are there any direct flights from Orlando to Istanbul?

There are no nonstop flights from Orlando to Istanbul; the quickest routing connects through Washington Dulles (IAD), flying United to IAD and then Turkish Airlines to Istanbul, with a total trip time of 13 hours 24 minutes (129 minutes on the first leg, 585 minutes on the second, and a 90-minute layover). Turkish Airlines operates the Istanbul-bound long leg on essentially every connecting option, with the most common routings via JFK and Boston in addition to Dulles.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

What are the ground transportation options in Istanbul?

From Istanbul Airport, the fastest option to the city center is the M11 metro line, which reaches Gayrettepe in about 30 minutes and requires an Istanbulkart; Havaist airport shuttle buses offer direct, 24/7 service to Taksim, Sultanahmet, Beşiktaş, and other districts, making them the most-used choice for many travelers. Taxis are available around the clock with three categories—orange, turquoise, and black luxury—and typical fares to central areas run from roughly €30–45, while private transfers provide flat-rate comfort for groups or those with heavy luggage. Municipal IETT buses also serve the airport but are slower and less convenient than the dedicated Havaist coaches.

Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Orlando to Istanbul?

There are no nonstop red-eye flights from Orlando to Istanbul, but connecting overnight itineraries do operate. Turkish Airlines runs an overnight leg from JFK to Istanbul departing 7:50 PM and arriving 1:00 PM the next day, reached from Orlando via JetBlue through JFK (or HPN). British Airways also offers an overnight leg from Orlando to London Gatwick departing 5:25 PM (or 9:10 PM) and arriving 6:50 AM (or 10:40 AM) the next morning, before continuing on to Istanbul.
Methodology
Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

Which airlines usually operate this route from Orlando to Istanbul?

There is no nonstop service from Orlando to Istanbul; the most common one-stop routings connect through Washington Dulles, Newark, New York JFK, or Boston on Turkish Airlines, with United or JetBlue operating the domestic leg. Turkish Airlines dominates the long-haul segment across nearly all patterns, while British Airways also offers a one-stop option via London Gatwick. The quickest itinerary is 13 hours 24 minutes via Washington Dulles on United and Turkish Airlines, with up to 16 weekly connections through JFK. Turkish Airlines is a Star Alliance member, as is United; JetBlue and Southwest are not alliance members.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a typical fare is shown for a carrier, it is the median of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

Which airport should I use in Istanbul?

Istanbul has two main airports. Istanbul Airport is the primary international gateway, located about 40 km northwest of the historic centre, and serves Turkish Airlines and most global carriers. Sabiha Gökçen is on the Asian side, roughly 50 km from Sultanahmet, and handles many low-cost and regional flights.

How do I get to Orlando International Airport from the city center?

Getting from downtown Orlando to Orlando International Airport (MCO) is easiest by ride-share or taxi, which take about 18 to 22 minutes and are the most popular and fastest door-to-door choices. Public LYNX buses (routes 11, 111, 42, and 436S) are the most affordable at roughly $2, while shared shuttle vans offer a mid-priced option. Driving yourself is also straightforward, with on-site parking garages at each terminal, and the Brightline train connects the airport to downtown from the station adjacent to Terminal C.

Are there hotels or sleeping facilities at Istanbul airport?

Istanbul Airport has several sleeping and hotel options, including YOTEL and YOTELAIR, which are both located within the main terminal building, with YOTEL on the landside near entrance 7 and YOTELAIR airside in the transit area. Sleep pods are available airside near Gates D, and day rooms can be booked at YOTELAIR for a minimum of 4 hours. The Hilton Istanbul Airport is situated opposite the main terminal, connected by a covered walkway.

What facilities and services are available to travelers at İstanbul Airport?

İstanbul Airport offers free Wi-Fi, charging points, ATMs, currency exchange offices, prayer rooms, shower areas, nap zones, luggage services and lockers, baby care rooms, children's play areas, a pharmacy, medical clinic, duty-free shopping, 24-hour food, information kiosks, workspaces, smoking areas, art exhibits and museum spaces, and a fresh air terrace. The airport also has a dental clinic, mobile health stations, and first aid/emergency services. Travelers can enjoy beauty services and a spa, as well as a TV watching area. The airport is designed to be family friendly with stroller loans and free buggy services for infants up to age two.

Are there accessible services or children's facilities at the Orlando and Istanbul airports?

Orlando International Airport provides a barrier-free path with elevators, companion care restrooms, adult changing tables, service animal relief areas, and a Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Program, and it has earned Certified Autism Center designation. Passengers can request mobility assistance through their airline, and the airport recommends arriving early due to possible shuttle interruptions. Istanbul Airport holds an Accessible Airport certificate and offers escort services from terminal entry to the aircraft, dedicated check-in counters, accessible toilets, tactile warning strips, special passport control points, sign language support, and designated parking. Travelers should contact their airline before travel to arrange assistance, and at Istanbul Airport they can also request a wheelchair through the airport website chat or at the help desk.

What aircraft are typically used on flights from Orlando to Istanbul?

There is no nonstop service from Orlando to Istanbul, so all flights connect. Turkish Airlines operates most of the connecting itineraries, flying Boeing 777-300ER, Boeing 787-9, Boeing 787 family, Airbus A350-900, and Airbus A350 family aircraft on the long-haul legs; British Airways also appears with Boeing 777 family equipment. Short connecting legs use a mix of Airbus A321, A321neo, A320, A220-300, Boeing 737 variants, and other narrowbodies operated by JetBlue, United, Southwest, Alaska, and British Airways.
Methodology
Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.

Which airline alliances serve flights from Orlando to Istanbul?

There is no nonstop service from Orlando to Istanbul, so flights connect through US gateways like Washington Dulles, Newark, JFK, Boston, and Atlanta. The long transatlantic leg is flown by Turkish Airlines, a Star Alliance member, with the domestic feeder legs operated by United (also Star Alliance) as well as JetBlue and Southwest, which belong to no alliance. British Airways, a oneworld member, also appears via a London Gatwick connection. Note that an Alaska Airlines feed via Seattle can carry oneworld passengers as well.

Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

What are the best airport lounge options when departing from Orlando?

Orlando International Airport (MCO) offers seven lounges: the Admirals Club, two The Club MCO locations, Delta Sky Club, United Club, Plaza Premium Lounge, and the USO Lounge. Priority Pass members can access both The Club MCO lounges and the Plaza Premium Lounge, while the USO Lounge serves active military personnel and their families. The Club MCO in Terminal A offers showers with luxury toiletries, and the Plaza Premium Lounge in Terminal C features a children's play area and games room.
