Is there anyone taking this flight?? My brother ,who hasn't flown alone through Istanbul before (always gone Larnaca) is a little apprehensive at finding his way through transit etc. Its flight TK1969 13.55 Istanbul - Birmingham 30/4/16. Just needs pointing in the right direction maybe.

Just follow the 'transit' directions to the departure gate shown for BHX, but check the board for any change of gate. Do not rely on broadcast announcements.

thanks tomsteel I know having done it a hundred times !! Just a bit worried as Steve is not a 'seasoned' traveller & Istanbul can be a bit daunting.

Have done this flight and your relative needs to be aware that there is a very long walk between gates when he changes from the Ercan to Birmingham flight. Would personally never use this route again because of this and always use the Larnaca route. Much more "user friendly.
