As mentioned above, just after leaving the DOM baggage reclaim turn right and follow the signs. When you get to INT arrivals take the escalator up to departures and head to the opposite end of the terminal for the *G FastTrack or lounge landside entrance if flying J

For the past year I have consistently been asked to remove my laptop but not liquids. And not just IST, GZP and AYT as well.

So you mean they shut an entrance to open up another one every 5 min? I have never noticed that, but I don't tend to hang about the entrance anyways.
