Who We Welcome
Flight Crew
Recovery between rotations, minutes from the crew hotel floor
At a glance
Airline crews on layover at Istanbul Airport use Navitas Spa inside Hilton Istanbul Airport for recovery between rotations: 50-minute antistress or deep tissue massages, the 80-minute Jet Lag Recovery package, the gym, pool, sauna and steam room. Crew and airline rates are arranged on request.
Why crews come here
Twelve hours in a cabin leaves a signature: shoulders and lower back from the jump seat and the trolley, legs from standing, a head that will not switch off at the wrong hour. The menu answers each of those directly, the walk from the terminal is short, and the booking takes one message.
What crews book most
- Antistress Massage, 50 minutes — neck, shoulders, lower back
- Deep Tissue or Sports Massage — after a series of long sectors
- Jet Lag Recovery — the afternoon after an eastbound arrival
- Scalp Massage as an add-on — fifteen minutes that switch the head off
- The gym at 06:00 and the pool at 20:00
For airlines and crew managers
We arrange crew rates and recovery programmes for airlines with regular layovers in Istanbul. Write to info@navitashiltonistairport.com with the airline, the typical layover length and the number of crew per month.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a crew rate?
Rates for airline crews are arranged with the airline or on presentation of a crew ID — ask us.
Can I book at short notice?
Yes — message us when you land. Same-day appointments are usually possible; the Sultan Hammam needs a day's notice.
