Airlines flying from Oslo to Istanbul
Who flies from Oslo to Istanbul? Turkish Airlines, Pegasus and Norwegian. Between them the route runs 1-3 a day. We compare their fares, timings and baggage for your travel date and send the two or three that make sense, not a list of fifty.
- Turkish Airlines - Oslo to Istanbul
- Pegasus - Oslo to Istanbul
- Norwegian - Oslo to Istanbul
Departure: Oslo Gardermoen Airport (OSL)
Oslo Gardermoen Airport (OSL) is where the Oslo to Istanbul flight begins. Terminals, gates and closing times are in the confirmation we send, with a note on the airport's security and passport checks. Arrive with a proper margin; low-cost carriers in particular close bag drop strictly on time.
- Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the electronic ticket - names must match exactly
- Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
- Haqqi Tours provides a private transfer from your hotel in Oslo to Oslo Gardermoen Airport
- Ask us about the terminal and fast-track options at Oslo Gardermoen Airport
Arrival: Istanbul Airport (IST) and getting into Istanbul
You arrive at Istanbul Airport (IST). The M11 metro links Istanbul Airport to Gayrettepe and Kağıthane, and the M4 line reaches Sabiha Gökçen; both then need a change and a walk with your bags, and Havaist and Havabüs coaches stop at fixed points rather than hotels. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your accommodation in Istanbul, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.
Onward flights or trains from Istanbul the same day can be added to the booking; let us know and we choose a Oslo to Istanbul departure that leaves a safe connection.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Oslo to Istanbul flight
Baggage is the item that most frequently changes the real cost of a flight from Oslo 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 Oslo to Istanbul
Three things to know about the flight from Oslo to Istanbul with children: infants under two fly on a lap, children get their own seat and generally a lower fare, and a folding pushchair goes free. Groups get seats together and, on many airlines, a group rate. Tell us the numbers and we handle the rest, including the transfer with enough room for everyone.
Things to do in Istanbul when you land
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. The reasons travellers fly from Oslo to Istanbul include Dolmabahçe Palace, a Bosphorus cruise between the two continents, the Princes' Islands, Ortaköy Mosque and Hagia Sophia. For the first meal, try kebabs and pide in Aksaray or Fatih, Turkish breakfast in Beşiktaş and baklava and Turkish delight in Karaköy.
If you want the days in Istanbul organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it on WhatsApp.
Best time to fly from Oslo to Istanbul
Flights from Oslo to Istanbul run all year, 1-3 a day. 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 Oslo
Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Istanbul to Oslo booked with the outbound is frequently cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.
How much is a flight from Oslo to Istanbul?
"How much is the Oslo to Istanbul flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours offers the current cost for the date you travel shortly afterwards of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.
The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Oslo to Istanbul flight is frequently not the one at the top of a search.
Cheapest flight from Oslo to Istanbul: how to pay less
The cheapest flight from Oslo to Istanbul is typically booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our staff applies on every booking:
- Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we check
- Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
- Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
- Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are usually cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
- Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares
- Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Oslo to Istanbul?" many times a day; the answer for your dates comes back by WhatsApp with the booking ready to confirm.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
Are there direct flights from Oslo to Istanbul?
Yes - Turkish Airlines, Pegasus and Norwegian fly non-stop from Oslo to Istanbul, 1-3 a day. We book the non-stop flight unless a connection is much cheaper and you prefer it.
Can I change or cancel my flight ticket?
It depends on the carrier and the fare class - flexible tickets can be changed, the cheapest usually cannot. We spell out the conditions before you confirm and handle any change for you afterwards.
What is the cheapest flight from Oslo to Istanbul?
Usually an early-booked mid-week departure on the carrier with the lowest fare that day, with only the baggage you need. Let us know if your dates are flexible and we find the cheapest Oslo to Istanbul flight across the days you can travel.
What is the difference between economy and business class?
Business class means a much larger seat, a meal, lounge access, priority boarding and normally a more flexible ticket; economy is the practical choice for a 4 hours flight. We send the cost of both.
Do you provide flights in the other direction or to other cities?
We do. Haqqi Tours books any route - the return from Istanbul to Oslo, or onward flights from Istanbul - and puts it all on one booking.
Do children and infants need a ticket?
Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children two and over need a seat and usually pay a child fare. Give the ages on the form and we apply the right fares and seat the family together.
What if my flight is delayed or cancelled?
The carrier must rebook you and may owe assistance or compensation under the rules that apply; our WhatsApp desk guides you through it. A transfer booked with us tracks the flight, so the driver waits.
Is baggage included in the Oslo to Istanbul flight ticket?
It depends on the fare: full-service fares generally include a checked bag, low-cost fares include a cabin bag only. We tell you exactly what is included before you book and add a suitcase at the cheaper booking rate if you need one.
When is the best time to book the Oslo to Istanbul flight?
As soon as your dates are fixed. Low fare tiers open months ahead and rise as seats sell; holidays and summer departures fill first.
Which airport do I fly from in Oslo?
Oslo Gardermoen Airport (OSL). We send the terminal, the check-in closing time and, if you book it, a private transfer from your accommodation.
Can Haqqi Tours arrange airport transfers?
Yes - a private car from your hotel to Oslo Gardermoen Airport and a driver waiting at Istanbul Airport, with flight tracking, on the same confirmation as the ticket.
How do I book flights from Oslo to Istanbul?
Fill in the short form on this page with your date, one-way or return, the number of adults and children and the class. Haqqi Tours messages you through WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost; you confirm, we book and send the e-ticket.
Do I need to print the e-ticket?
No. The e-ticket and booking reference on your phone are all you need at check-in; we send both and remind you to bring the passport or ID used in the booking.
How long is the flight from Oslo to Istanbul?
About 4 hours in the air, non-stop. We send the exact times of the flight you choose.
What happens if I miss the flight?
It depends on the fare: the cheapest tickets are lost, flexible ones can be rebooked for a fee or free. We clarify the rules of your fare before you pay and help in the WhatsApp chat if something goes wrong on the day.
