Whoever keeps voting Istanbul Airport as the world’s best airport needs their head checked
I don’t get the hype around Istanbul Airport. The taxi time after landing feels endless. Then you walk forever just to get anywhere. And its always insanely crowded with people from every corner of the world. At this point it probably has every virus currently circulating on the planet. Everything is ridiculously expensive. And so many basic things just aren’t thought through.
For latest flight to the US they still packed us onto buses like sardines to get to the plane.
And for US flights, you have to go through an additional security checkpoint—but they don’t even have bathrooms inside that secured area. If you need to use the restroom, you have to leave, go back out, and then go through security all over again. #travel
