Those teams making the trip (or considering at least) to Istanbul for the first event might want to check out flights to Sabiha Gokcen International Airport (SAW) opposed to the usual and more well known Istanbul Ataturk Airport (IST). More economy airlines fly to SAW and it might prove to be a cheaper option.
