What airlines fly from San Francisco Intl. Airport (SFO) to Istanbul Airport?
As it stands, no single airline flies straight to IST from San Francisco Intl. Airport (SFO). Touching down there will involve one stopover at least. Lock in your ticket ahead of time to nab the best price and connections.
What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?
Airfares offered on Friday tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity.ca in 2021. Purchasing your airfares on a Thursday or Saturday can also provide better value, however our advice if you're looking to save money is to avoid booking on a Wednesday or Sunday. Our data shows that those two days have the highest ticket values on average, so keep this in mind if you're browsing flight deals.
What are the cheapest days to fly?
Frequent travelers may already know this, but earlier in the week can be the cheapest time to fly. In 2021, flights departing on a Monday were generally the cheapest of the week, whereas you may pay a premium for weekend flights when demand is usually high. On average, tickets were most expensive for Saturday departures, so if you need to fly out on a weekend, you might look for deals ahead of time.
How far in advance can you book a flight?
Here's the deal: It is typically possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity.ca up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 2-4 weeks prior to their travel dates.*According to flight demand on Travelocity.ca from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change based on departure location, date and destination.
