IST to SSH questions
Is IST–SSH running on time right now?
Smooth skies ahead. Both endpoints currently score the same, route health score 100/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
Morning or evening flight on IST–SSH?
Operators schedule morning departures around 02:05 from IST. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the SSH delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How long is the flight from IST to SSH?
Great-circle distance is 1,565 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 140–164 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does IST–SSH fly?
Turkish Airlines runs the route with about 10 flights a week (daily). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.
