Your Flight

We analysed more than 8,000 data points along your route from İstanbul Airport, Arnavutköy, Istanbul to Allama Iqbal International Airport, Lahore.

Your Journey Beta

1 hour and 2 hours into the flight: Some moderate bumps expected.
The crew may adjust altitude or ask you to stay seated during these sections.
The rest of the flight should be smooth.

Your route takes you crossing the Black Sea and over the Hindu Kush – these areas can sometimes cause light turbulence.

Some Bumps Ahead

There are a couple of short sections with bumps, but nothing out of the ordinary. Turbulence can feel uncomfortable, but it is not dangerous. Aircraft are designed to handle it easily. Pilots often adjust altitude or route to find smoother air.

Takeoff

Takeoff should feel smooth with possible light bumps, with calm conditions around the airport.

Winds Aloft

Standard wind conditions expected at cruising altitude.

Landing

Landing should feel expect some bumps on approach with typical approach conditions.

You're in Safe Hands

If you feel nervous at any point, remember that turbulence is expected, safe, and part of normal flying. The crew is monitoring everything, and the aircraft is built to handle far more than anything you will feel. Have a safe and calm flight.
