What they didn’t say was that you arrive at Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) airport and then need to transit via bus through Istanbul to Istanbul Atatürk Airport (IST) — a distance of about 46 miles. Depending on your arrival and departure times — and traffic — this raises the possibility of missing the flight and being stuck in Istanbul for the night. Frankly, there is a genuine concern for personal safety in Istanbul.
But what the blog is really fishing for are your clicks. So there is something else they didn’t tell you. Just a couple of days after the post was made we checked availability and we were surprised to find two things: First, the last departure date for this “deal” was 30th of June — and on the London Gatwick to Istanbul flight we checked there was exactly one seat at that price — and that vanished a few minutes later.
