How Istanbul Airport fast track works (arrivals, departures & transit)

Istanbul Airport fast track gives you priority passport control and priority security screening, so you skip the main queues at immigration and at the security checkpoint. On arrival, your assistant meets you inside the terminal and walks you through express passport control and immigration straight to baggage reclaim. On departure, you are fast-tracked through security and passport control to your gate or lounge. Transit passengers with a connecting flight can use fast track to move quickly through passport control and security between flights, which is ideal for short layovers.
