Airlines flying from Fes to Istanbul
Royal Air Maroc flies the Fes to Istanbul route, with a connection in Casablanca. They differ in baggage rules, seat pitch, meals and the airports they use as much as in price, so the cheapest fare is not always the best value. Haqqi Tours lays the options out plainly: which fare includes a checked bag, which airline flies at the time you want, and which is the better choice for a family or a business trip.
Departure: Fès-Saïss Airport (FEZ)
Flights from Fes to Istanbul leave from Fès-Saïss Airport (FEZ), serving Fes - fes is Morocco's oldest imperial city, with Fes el-Bali, one of the largest car-free medinas in the world, and the oldest continuously running university. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: The airport has no train, and the airport bus goes to the station rather than the medina; petit taxis are metered but often over-quoted at arrivals, so a pre-booked private car with a fixed pick-up is simpler, and cars cannot enter the medina lanes in any case; trains from Fes Station reach Meknes, Rabat, Casablanca and Tangier.
- Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
- Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
- Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
- Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
Arrival: Istanbul Airport or Sabiha Gökçen (IST / SAW) and getting into Istanbul
Arrival is at Istanbul Airport or Sabiha Gökçen (IST / SAW), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Istanbul is the only city that sits on two continents, and its arrivals split the same way: Istanbul Airport (IST) serves the European side and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) the Asian side, with the Bosphorus bridges and the Eurasia Tunnel joining the two halves. We provide airport transfers in Istanbul with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.
Onward flights or trains from Istanbul the same day can be added to the booking; tell us and we choose a Fes to Istanbul departure that leaves a safe connection.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Fes to Istanbul flight
Baggage is the item that most frequently changes the real cost of a flight from Fes to Istanbul. Full-service fares normally include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.
- Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
- Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
- Seat selection free or paid depending on the airline; families seated together on request
- Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
Flying with children, families and groups from Fes to Istanbul
Families fly the Fes to Istanbul route with us all year round. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the carrier offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the airline for a group fare where the numbers justify it.
Things to do in Istanbul when you land
the Grand Bazaar and Spice Bazaar, Galata Tower, the Basilica Cistern, Dolmabahçe Palace and a Bosphorus cruise between the two continents are what most passengers come to Istanbul for. Istanbul is the only city that sits on two continents, and its arrivals split the same way: Istanbul Airport (IST) serves the European side and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) the Asian side, with the Bosphorus bridges and the Eurasia Tunnel joining the two halves. Eat kebabs and pide in Aksaray or Fatih, Turkish breakfast in Beşiktaş and baklava and Turkish delight in Karaköy while you are there.
Haqqi Tours can provide guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Istanbul; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.
Best time to fly from Fes to Istanbul
Flights from Fes to Istanbul run all year, daily connections. Spring and autumn are the pleasant seasons; July and August are hot and busy, and winter brings rain, wind off the Bosphorus and the occasional snowfall. Traffic on the bridges is heaviest on weekday evenings. If you can travel outside those weeks the same seat costs less and the airports are quieter. Whatever the month, early booking is the single biggest saving.
Return flight from Istanbul to Fes
We book the return leg from Istanbul to Fes just as easily, generally on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Let us know the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.
How much is a flight from Fes to Istanbul?
The cost of a flight from Fes to Istanbul depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we look up the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost on WhatsApp, with the options side by side.
What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the electronic ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.
