Find cheaper flights to Turkey

Most UK holiday makers boarding their flight to Turkey have only one type of holiday in mind, relaxing on the beach, but this remarkable country has a wealth of treasures for those who want a little more from their trip. Aside from the beach resort havens of the Mediterranean coast to the south and the Aegean coast to the west Turkey is awash with history and culture. The country spans east and west like no other. Christian and Muslim forces contradict each other and yet both are embraced along with a fast developing secular and commercial culture that is bringing the country rapidly alongside its European neighbours.

Most tourist flights to Turkey head for one of the coastal airports such as Antalya, Bodrum or Dalaman or alternatively for the nation's spiritual capital Istanbul. The capital city is actually Ankara but Istanbul is really the heart of this amazing country. The city is the only one in the world to be located both in Europe and Asia, with the old and new districts being separated by the Bosphorus Strait. Istanbul retains reminders of much of its rich past during which time it was the capital of the Christian Byzantine Empire and later also capital of the Muslim Ottoman Empire. Its enviable position on the water also made it a hugely powerful hub for international trade. The prospect of a city break in this fascinating place is certainly a great reason to snap up a cheap flight to Turkey.

However, while the country has a huge amount of variety to offer the adventurous traveller outside of Istanbul, most vistors on a Turkey flight are intent on relaxing in a beach resort on one of the magnificent coastlines. In the summer there are numerous scheduled and charter flights to these coastal areas not just from London but also from Manchester, Birmingham, Belfast, Glasgow and many other regional airports in the UK. Be warned though that prices can get pretty steep in June, July and August when the weather is at its hottest and the school holidays push prices up.

Flights to Turkey can take you direct to Bodrum on the Aegean coast for resorts such as Izmir, Gumbet and Kusadasi or direct to Antalya or Dalaman on the Mediterranean coast for resorts such as Icmeler, Side, Marmaris and Alanya. Both regions are renowned for stunning beaches although the Aegean coast also has an unparalleled richness of cultural sites such as the ancient cities of Ephesus and Troy.
