How to get the best deal on a Istanbul — Jeddah ticket

Choose low-cost carriers: airlines like Pegasus Airlines, flynas, and flyadeal often offer lower fares, but keep in mind that baggage is usually charged separately.
Book in advance: for this route, the optimal booking window is 4–6 weeks before departure, as the price of a seat can increase by AED 175 closer to the date.
Compare days of the week: departures on Tuesday and Wednesday are traditionally cheaper than flights on Friday or Sunday, which is confirmed by the price trend chart on this page.
Check the terms of Saudia and Turkish Airlines: these carriers often include meals and standard baggage in the base fare, which may be more cost-effective than budget airlines if you need to carry luggage.
