IST to JRO questions
Is IST–JRO running on time right now?
Mostly on schedule. The departure side at IST is the weaker end, route health score 80/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
Morning or evening flight on IST–JRO?
Operators schedule evening departures around 18:35 from IST. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the JRO delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How long is the flight from IST to JRO?
Great-circle distance is 5,042 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 386–462 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does IST–JRO fly?
Turkish Airlines runs the route with about 7 flights a week (daily). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.
