Our Istanbul Airport luggage storage experience
We have left our backpack at the left baggage office for a day as at the time it was cheaper than renting a locker and everything went smoothly.
Currently, storage price at Istanbul Airport lockers and left luggage office is similar unless you have specific needs like storing several smaller bags that would make lockers a cheaper option.
