Turkish Airlines, Pegasus, Onur Air, AtlasJet, etc. have CHEAP fares on their websites, can be 8 to 10 times lower than on Expedia, etc. But you must do it on the airlines' websites.
Best fares are Promotional, far in advance—but expect bait-and-switch: low "fare," but then add-ons of "taxes" and "charges" (even a charge to buy the ticket!) may add 80% to the fare. Still, it'll be cheaper than a fare from any outfit outside of Turkey.
