Return flight from Istanbul to Busan

How much is a flight from Busan to Istanbul?
Flight prices from Busan to Istanbul follow demand: book early on a quiet day and you pay a fraction of a last-minute fare in high season. The airline you choose, whether the fare includes baggage, the seat class and the time of the flight all change the total. Rather than quote a number that will be wrong tomorrow, Haqqi Tours checks the fare for the day you want to fly and sends it to you in the WhatsApp chat before you decide.
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 Busan to Istanbul flight is often not the one at the top of a search.
Cheapest flight from Busan to Istanbul: how to pay less
A cheap Busan to Istanbul flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we look up for you:
- Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
- Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
- Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
- Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we look up
- 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
We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Busan to Istanbul?" many times a day; the answer for your dates comes back on WhatsApp with the booking ready to confirm.

Airlines flying from Busan to Istanbul
On the flight from Busan to Istanbul you can choose between Korean Air and Turkish Airlines. A full-service airline usually includes a checked bag, a meal and a flexible ticket; a low-cost fare is cheaper at the start and adds those items one by one. We provide both and tell you the total for the way you actually travel.
- Korean Air - Busan to Istanbul
- Turkish Airlines - Busan to Istanbul
Departure: Gimhae International Airport (PUS)
Your journey starts at Gimhae International Airport (PUS). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. The Busan-Gimhae Light Rail links the airport with Sasang, where Metro Line 2 continues to Seomyeon and Haeundae, and it is cheap and fast for a light-luggage trip to central Busan; with luggage, a family, or a hotel in Haeundae, Gijang or Gamcheon, a private car from the terminal is simpler.
- Let us know about the terminal and fast-track options at Gimhae International Airport
- 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
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 hotel 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 Busan to Istanbul departure that leaves a safe connection.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Busan to Istanbul flight
On board, the Busan to Istanbul flight is about 15 hours 20 minutes: economy is perfectly comfortable, and business class adds a bigger seat, a meal and lounge access for those who want it. Baggage rules differ by airline and fare; children and infants have their own allowances. Tell us who is flying and what you are carrying and we choose accordingly.
- Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
- Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
- Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
- Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
Flying with children, families and groups from Busan to Istanbul
Three things to know about the flight from Busan to Istanbul with children: infants under two fly on a lap, children get their own seat and normally a lower fare, and a folding pushchair goes free. Groups get seats together and, on many airlines, a group rate. Let us know the numbers and we handle the rest, including the transfer with enough room for everyone.
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 travellers 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 baklava and Turkish delight in Karaköy, meze on a Bosphorus terrace and simit and tea at any corner while you are there.
If you want the days in Istanbul organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it in the WhatsApp chat.
Best time to fly from Busan to Istanbul
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. For the fare itself, the cheapest flights from Busan to Istanbul are found outside school holidays and major events, on mid-week days, booked early. Peak weeks sell out first and cost most; shoulder months give the best mix of weather, availability and price.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
Can I add extra baggage or sports equipment?
Yes - extra bags, skis, golf clubs and bicycles can be added at booking on most airlines, at a lower rate than at the airport. Let us know what you are carrying.
Are there direct flights from Busan to Istanbul?
Not on most days; the journey is made with a connection in Seoul (Incheon). We choose the connection with a safe layover and send both legs on one ticket.
Is baggage included in the Busan to Istanbul flight ticket?
Not always. Full-service fares generally include a checked bag; low-cost and basic fares include hand luggage only. We state exactly what each fare includes before you book and add a bag where it is cheaper to do so at booking.
What happens if I miss the flight?
The cheapest fares are forfeited; flexible fares can be rebooked for a fee or free. We tell you which rules apply before you commit to anything, and our WhatsApp desk helps on the day if something goes wrong.
Can I book the Busan to Istanbul flight for a group?
Certainly. Give the number of passengers on the form; we book everyone together in one reservation and, when the numbers justify it, ask the airline for a group fare.
Do you provide flights in the other direction or to other cities?
Yes, absolutely. Haqqi Tours arranges flight tickets on any route; Istanbul to Busan and onward flights from Istanbul can all go on the same booking.
How do I book flights from Busan to Istanbul?
Fill out the form above with your date, one-way or return, the number of adults and children and the class. Haqqi Tours messages you by WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost; you confirm, we book and send the e-ticket.
Can I book a return flight from Istanbul to Busan?
Of course. Choose "return" on the form and give both dates; we compare a return fare with two singles and book the cheaper one. If the return date is not fixed, we explain the flexible options.
Can I change or cancel my flight ticket?
It depends on the airline and the fare class - flexible tickets can be changed, the cheapest typically cannot. We spell out the conditions before you confirm and handle any change for you afterwards.
When is the best time to book the Busan to Istanbul flight?
As early as your dates allow. Low fare classes open months ahead and disappear as the plane fills; holidays, weekends and summer departures sell first.
How much is a flight from Busan to Istanbul?

Korean Air and Turkish Airlines. We compare their fares, timings and baggage for your date and send the ones that make sense.

Yes, at their own fares: infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced rate, children from two need a seat and typically pay a child fare. Give the ages on the form and we apply them.
Do I need to print the e-ticket?
No - the electronic ticket and the booking reference on your phone are enough for check-in. We send both and remind you to carry the passport or ID used for booking.
