FCO to IST questions

Is FCO–IST running on time right now?

Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at FCO is the weaker end, route health score 83/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

Morning or evening flight on FCO–IST?

Operators schedule morning departures around 06:55 from FCO. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the IST delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.

How long is the flight from FCO to IST?

Great-circle distance is 1,374 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 127–148 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does FCO–IST fly?

Turkish Airlines runs the route with about 28 flights a week (daily). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.
