Flying to Istanbul with MIAT Mongolian Airlines 🇹🇷✈️

This time, I went to Istanbul ✈️ I hadn't heard much about them, but they were cheap, so I tried MIAT Mongolian Airlines. By the way, it was 47,790 yen one way. Narita Airport 14:40 → New Ulaanbaatar Airport 19:15 New Ulaanbaatar Airport 7:55 (+1) → Istanbul Airport 12:55 I had about 12 hours in Mongolia, so I was wondering whether to stay at the airport or in a hotel. It takes an hour to get from the city to the airport, and I heard that the morning traffic is terrible, so I decided to stay at the airport. I arrived at New Ulaanbaatar Airport and headed towards the Transfer sign. There was no staff there, but after waiting for about 5 minutes, a staff member came and the procedure was completed. There was one place to stretch your legs and rest at the departure gate (photos 2 and 3). The other sofas didn't have handrails, so I felt like I could lie down and rest. Thank you☺️☺️ There was a cafe and a restaurant (ramen shop), and it was open during the night depending on the flight. I was worried about transiting alone, but I was inside the departure gate, so I was able to spend the time without any problems. I slept normally💤 Narita to Ulaanbaatar was a 3-3 plane, and Ulaanbaatar to Istanbul was a 2-3-2 plane. I was lucky that there was no one next to me on both flights, so I was able to stretch my legs☺️ The in-flight meals were also quite delicious🍽️ (3rd photo: Narita to Ulaanbaatar, 4th and 5th photos: Ulaanbaatar to Istanbul)
