Travel through Istanbul, Turkey

As a regular traveller to the Philippines I've seen good prices using Turkish airlines from Manchester to Manila.

I know Turkish have now got a reasonable reputation, but anyone with insider knowledge or regular travellers through the country, can they give any info regarding the current Political situation and what is happening.

I understand, and know it's early yet, but don't want to mess up my visit if anything "kicks off" before I travel in August. I also realise that the tourism industry is important to Turkey, so this may keep the transfer situation stable.

I would rather travel other ways if there is any possibility of instability. I have a baby due so no way will I miss the journey.

Thank you in anticipation.
