Hundreds of passengers were stranded at the entrance of Istanbul's Ataturk airport early on Wednesday after suspected Islamic State group suicide bombers targeted the international terminal, killing at least 36 people and wounding many others.
Some passengers turned up saying they had heard prime minister Binali Yildirim saying flights would resume.
Associated Press reporters at the airport said, however, that there was no evidence of any incoming or outgoing air traffic.
Many were awaiting news for information on their flights. Some were in transit to international destinations and were moved out of the airport in the aftermath of the attack.
