US warn of "credible threats" in Tourist areas of Turkey

Particularly Istanbul and Antalya

"The U.S. Mission in Turkey would like to inform U.S. citizens that there are credible threats to tourist areas, in particular to public squares and docks in Istanbul and Antalya," it said in the statement. "Please exercise extreme caution if you are in the vicinity of such areas."

Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.

    Don't worry about it: the US travel advice is generally paranoid and unrealistic. Just keep an eye on the FCO travel advice...

    Yeah, I have been doing. I'm not worried about any danger, more about disruptions to the flight home.
