Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from BSL to IST last minute?
When it comes to booking your flights, it's better to be prepared. While you could pick up a last-minute deal on an EuroAirport to IST flight, fares usually don't get cheaper as the date of departure nears.
