Dear all, I arrive at Istanbul Ataturk Airport at 6:10 am, and then transfer to domestic flights at 7:15 am. Is it enough time? How long does it take to land and go through customs ?

It's too late to pick up luggage. It's also tight without checked baggage or a connecting flight. The airport is too big.

One hour for the transfer is definitely not enough. Not to mention the factor of flight delay, it will take more than 30 minutes to exit and pick up the luggage. The new airport's international transfer to domestic flight requires a long distance to be walked, and there is also a queue for domestic flight check-in, which will consume a lot of time. At the time, I reserved 3 and a half hours for insurance. It is better to reserve more than two and a half hours for the new airport's international transfer to domestic flight for insurance.
