Our 7 hour layover in Istanbul airport was not one of the best, we managed to find a few seats and crash out for an hours sleep only to wake up feeling worse and slightly embarrassed as we were then surrounded by hundreds of people waiting for their planes. The airport is one the busiest but wifi is only free if you have a Turkish phone to be sent the password or if you can hack into one of the cafes networks, there are not many chairs and although food at airports is always pricey this must be the most expensive airport I have ever been too.
I was so happy to finally be on the last plane hopefully for at least the next few months but was surprised at how lax the flight regulations were. They didn't worry about people getting up just before the plane took off to use the bathroom or get water. They also didn't seem to care about the use of electronic equipment during take-off or landing. Thankfully it was a short couple of hours flight.
