Turkish airspace and Istanbul’s major airports, Istanbul Airport and Sabiha Gökçen Airport, remain open and fully operational, with no active conflict-zone bulletins issued for Türkiye by EASA. While Turkish Airlines, Pegasus, and AJet maintain regular domestic and international services, routes extending into neighboring Middle Eastern airspace face potential rerouting or adjustments. Türkiye's state airports authority DHMI recorded over 1.1 million flights and 112 million passengers in Turkish airspace during the first half of 2026.
