Domestic Flights

Domestic flights 

Domestic flights are generally cheaper and shorter than most international flights.Domestic flights are the only sector of aviation not exhibiting a global long term growth trend due to many smaller countries increasingly replacing short domestic routes with high speed rail. Domestic flights are flights within a specific country's boundaries. Passengers or cargo transportation can be handled through airline companies. Additionally, domestic flights can be arranged for military purposes. In these cases, flights take place within the country and travel only through certain domestic flight lines. For these flights, passengers use domestic terminals. All of the airports designed for public use have domestic terminals. Airports with international terminals can also be referred to as international airports.

What Does Domestic Arrivals Mean?

During peak travel seasons, airports are much more crowded, security lines are longer, and you'll need to allow more time. The same goes for particularly busy times of day, such as Monday mornings.It is the terminal where passengers traveling within the country arrive at the airport. A passenger traveling from Ankara to Istanbul arrives at the airport through domestic arrivals. People who land after their domestic flights, get through the gates at the airport. After arriving at the domestic arrivals, there is no need to get through the security checkpoints. However, passengers with checked baggage should go to the baggage claim area. 

What Does Domestic Departures Mean?

The domestic departure area is the area in which passengers taking a domestic flight need to be. It is located within the domestic terminal. Passengers traveling from Istanbul to Ankara can start the process by getting to the Sabiha Gokcen Airport's domestic terminal.

How much time do I need for a domestic connection?

Again, this one varies significantly depending on the airport and your itinerary . Each airport has a minimum connection time (airlines aren't allowed to book you on a connection under this time limit) which is often posted on its website. For most airports, 30 - 45 minutes as a good general baseline, but again the minimum viable connection time that's wise for your individual trip can vary based on a lot of factors, like how likely your first flight is to be delayed and how quickly you can maneuver through an airport.
