Antigen Test at Airport Intl-Intl

Hi, I am aware that landside there are testing facilities.
I will be flying to Istanbul with a 14h overnight connection to Finland.
I will need a test to use in Finland so I can access some places, I considered taking the test upon arrival in Helsinki, however as I have a long time in IST, I thought I could take it there, but I have a few doubts:
1 - How much is an Antigen Test and how long would it take to get the result (I think as a foreigner I would need to get a paper copy at the counter)?
2 - As Turkey is recognized as a Third Country with reciprocity to EU Digital COVID Pass, would this test qualify as a valid one to be used to get into venues in Europe (such as by having a QR code)?
3 - Did anyone recently take the test? I would be there at 23rd by the evening or 24th early in the morning, any ideas about queues?
Take care everyone!
