On 28.05.2024, Istanbul welcomed the joyous occasion of Ramadan Bayramı with vibrant public celebrations that filled the city’s streets, parks, and neighborhoods with music, fe laughter, and traditional customs. Known as one of the most cherished religious holidays in Turkey, Ramadan Bayramı marks the end of the holy month of fasting and is celebrated with family gatherings, special prayers, and community events.
In Istanbul, the festive spirit was on full display as locals dressed in their finest clothes and visited mosques for morning prayers. Public squares such as Taksim Gezi Park and Kadıköy Sahil were transformed into celebration hubs featuring live performances, folk dance troupes, and food stalls offering traditional sweets like baklava and şekerpare. Families also gathered along the Bosphorus for picnics, enjoying the warm spring weather and the sense of unity that defines the holiday.
For many international visitors, especially those traveling from Muslim-majority countries or reconnecting with loved ones abroad, flights to Istanbul saw a significant increase in demand during this time. Business flights provided flexibility for travelers managing tight schedules, while business class flights ensured a seamless and comfortable journey across continents.
Business class tickets were particularly popular among returning expatriates and dignitaries attending official events hosted by the Turkish government and religious institutions. Airlines serving IST—Istanbul Airport—offered premium services tailored to the needs of travelers observing Ramadan, including customized meal options and prayer-friendly seating arrangements.
First class flights were also in demand by elite guests who wished to experience the utmost comfort and personalized service during their travels. Direct connections from major U.S. cities such as New York (JFK), Chicago (ORD), and Washington (IAD) made it easier than ever for American travelers to join the festivities.
