Istanbul to Varna (IST-VAR): nonstop upgrade & award space

Turkish Airlines flies the IST to VAR nonstop about 10 times a week. Turkish Airlines sets the rhythm here, a few flights a day with a small premium cabin on each, so a date with open space is worth acting on the day you see it. 2LNR tracks award seats on Turkish Airlines across every IST to VAR date, so you can see whether a seat exists before you move points.

Departure and arrival times are local at their own airport, so an arrival can fall on a different local date than the departure; the duration column is the true elapsed flying time. A dash means the airline has not filed that value in the schedule data we hold. Aircraft are IATA equipment codes as filed, and can change up to departure.
