Cheap Pegasus Airlines Flights: Book Low Fares

Pegasus Airlines was founded in 1990 and has operated as Turkey's first low-cost carrier since 2005. Its home base is Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport on the Asian side of the city, with further bases in Izmir, Antalya and Ankara Esenboğa. The network links dozens of Turkish cities with Europe, above all Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, France and the UK, and reaches on to the Middle East, the Caucasus and Central Asia.

For travellers between Germany and Turkey, Pegasus is one of the most popular choices: non-stop services from Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin, Hanover, Stuttgart, Cologne and Hamburg to Sabiha Gökçen, Antalya, Izmir and Ankara. Tickets come as Basic, Essentials, Advantage and Comfort Flex bundles. Basic covers hand luggage only; the higher bundles add a checked bag, seat selection and more flexibility for changes.

A few simple habits lead to the cheapest Pegasus fares: book early, look at midweek and off-season dates, choose Basic if you travel with hand luggage only, and for Istanbul compare flights into Sabiha Gökçen as well. With a free BolBol membership you earn points on every flight and spend them on later tickets. The prices on this page are the current lowest Pegasus fares found by our searches.

Every Pegasus ticket includes one piece of cabin baggage; the weight and size limits are shown while you book. Checked baggage depends on the bundle: with Basic you buy it separately, while Essentials and the higher bundles include an allowance.

• Extra baggage: adding it online, during or after booking, is far cheaper than paying at the airport desk.
• Sports equipment and special items: charged separately and must be registered in advance.

Online and mobile check-in with Pegasus is free and opens a few days before departure; the boarding pass can be saved in the app. Some airports charge a fee for desk check-in, so checking in online saves both time and money. If you have checked baggage, mind the bag-drop closing time shown in your flight details.

Pegasus flies one of the youngest fleets in Europe, built around the Airbus A320neo and A321neo; the remaining Boeing 737-800s are being phased out step by step. All aircraft have a single economy cabin, and food and drinks can be bought from the Pegasus Café menu on board.
