My trip involved 8 flights on 3 different airlines: Atlasjet (Adana-Istanbul, Istanbul-Adana); Emirates (Istanbul-Dubai, Dubai-Karachi, Karachi-Dubai, Dubai-Istanbul); and Airblue (Karachi-Lahore, Islamabad-Karachi).
Here are some flight-related photos:
Sabanci Mosque (bottom), Adana Hilton (top) and the Roman Bridge (top right), Adana.
The Taurus Mountains (“Toros Daglari”) north of Mersin. Notice the snow on some of the peaks.
At Ataturk Airport, Istanbul, were many Turkish people waiting to leave for the Hajj pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia.

Karachi suburbs from the plane. Karachi is a huge city and the suburbs were visible for a long time in the plane.
