Istanbul has been on sale from New York, Washington D.C., Chicago and Los Angeles. Outside of that, the rest of the US to Istanbul has actually been pretty expensive. This is a pretty decent deal with limited availability. We expect Istanbul prices to trend upwards after October as Delta pulls out of the market for the Winter and Spring months.
