    Have you looked at flying to Istanbul and getting a connecting flight from there? Can be cheaper
    Hope is not a strategy.

    Excellent suggestion.
    Spend a couple of nights in Istanbul as well - an absolutely awesome, wonderful city.

    Flights to Turkey will have gone up when Goldtrail went bust, there is less competition.

    You could try easyjet when summer prices are released?
