Where can I find live IST arrival information?

Does the IST arrivals board show actual landing times?
When available, the arrival tracker may show an actual arrival or landing time after the aircraft reaches Istanbul Airport. Before landing, an estimated arrival time may be displayed instead.
What does “scheduled” mean on an Istanbul Airport arrival?
“Scheduled” means the flight is currently listed to arrive according to its published timetable. It does not necessarily mean that the aircraft has departed or that its eventual arrival time will remain unchanged.
What does “en route” mean for an IST arrival?
“En route” indicates that the arriving aircraft is currently travelling toward Istanbul Airport. Its estimated arrival time may be updated while the flight is airborne.
What does “landed” mean on the IST arrivals page?
“Landed” means the aircraft has arrived at Istanbul Airport. Additional airport processes, such as reaching its assigned stand and baggage delivery, may still take place after landing.
Can an Istanbul Airport arrival time change during the day?
Yes. Arrival estimates can change because of air traffic, weather, operational conditions, departure delays and other factors. The live tracker is designed to reflect the latest available information.
How early should I check an arriving flight at IST?
For the most accurate picture, check the arrival status before leaving for the airport and again closer to the scheduled arrival time. This is especially useful when collecting someone from an incoming flight.
Can I check arrivals from a specific city at Istanbul Airport?
If the arrivals tracker provides an origin filter, you can select or search for a particular departure city or airport to find relevant incoming flights.
Can I check arrivals by flight number at IST?
Yes. Searching by flight number is one of the quickest ways to locate a specific incoming flight when the flight-search function is available.
Does the Istanbul Airport arrivals page include international flights?
Yes. Istanbul Airport handles both international and domestic arrivals, so the live arrival board can include incoming flights from destinations in Turkey and around the world.
Does the arrivals tracker show baggage information?
Baggage details may be displayed when they are provided by the available flight or airport data. If baggage information is not available, it may not appear on the live arrival record.
Why might an arrival status not be available?
A flight status may temporarily be unavailable when current tracking or operational data has not yet been received or updated. Checking the arrivals board again later can provide the latest available information.
Is the scheduled arrival time the same as the actual arrival time?
No. The scheduled arrival is the original timetable, while the actual arrival is the recorded landing time. An estimated arrival may be shown between those two stages.
What should I do if an Istanbul Airport arrival is delayed?
If you are meeting an arriving passenger, monitor the live IST arrivals board for updated timing rather than travelling based only on the original schedule. The estimated arrival may change again as the flight progresses.
How often should I refresh the IST arrivals information?
For a flight you are actively monitoring, refreshing the live arrivals information periodically is useful because flight status, estimated arrival time and other details can change.
Can I use the IST arrivals page to monitor several incoming flights?
Yes. The arrivals board can be used to check multiple incoming flights by reviewing the available flight, origin, airline and status information. This is particularly useful when monitoring several passengers or airport pickups.
