The end of October brings the last influx of tourists and sees the expat community taking advantage of  of the remaining 4 hour flights to the UK.  There are a few  specials over Xmas and the New Year but generally, until next Spring,  one can only travel here via Istanbul and that always means a long wait in an expensive terminal, interminable in fact.
