TL;DR
A direct Sochi–Istanbul flight can go for around $130 one-way (about $270 round-trip), but fares from other departure cities are much higher — e.g. two adults flying round-trip for 10 days paid the equivalent of about $1,900. Prices vary a lot by exact travel date and departure city.
A family of three (2 adults + an 11-year-old) flying from a Siberian city found a decent fare only for one specific date (Aug 22) — all other dates were noticeably pricier. Flights from cities farther from major hubs tend to cost more overall.
A couple flying from a regional Russian city for a 10-day trip paid a combined total equivalent to about $1,900 for both round-trip tickets. Tip: stay flexible with departure dates and watch for price drops instead of booking the first date you see.
The cheapest option found was a direct Sochi–Istanbul flight: from about $130 one-way, or roughly $270 round-trip if you catch a good deal. After the flight, that leaves around $215 in a 10-day budget for accommodation.
