Things to do in Trabzon when you land

Trabzon is the main city of Turkey's Black Sea coast, green and steep, with the airport (TZX) only about 6 km east of the centre on the shore, Uzungöl lake about 95 km into the mountains, the Sumela Monastery 45 km away and the Ayder plateau across the border into Rize. Start with Ayder plateau and hot springs, Sumela Monastery on its cliff and Uzungöl lake and village, then Hagia Sophia of Trabzon and Atatürk Pavilion. A tip from our desk: Uzungöl and Ayder are highland villages far from the airport - tell us the hotel and we send a driver who knows the mountain roads and the weather that day.

If you want the days in Trabzon organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it through WhatsApp.

Best time to fly from Istanbul to Trabzon

The Black Sea is mild and wet: summers are green and busy, especially with Gulf visitors from June to September, and winters bring snow to Uzungöl and the plateaus while the coast stays open. On the flight from Istanbul to Trabzon, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.

Return flight from Trabzon to Istanbul

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Trabzon to Istanbul 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 Istanbul to Trabzon?

"How much is the Istanbul to Trabzon 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 can provide the current cost for your travel date quickly of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.

Ask us for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.

Cheapest flight from Istanbul to Trabzon: how to pay less

• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are generally 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

Departure: Istanbul Airport (IST)

Your journey starts at Istanbul Airport (IST). 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 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.

• Let us know about the terminal and fast-track options at Istanbul 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
