Izmir is not a "coastal resort", it's the third biggest city in Turkey, probably the most cosmopolitan - a "resort" it most definitely is not. The bomb was exploded outside the main law courts, nowhere near the Korden/Alsancak where most of the hotels are.

The airport is a good 40 minutes outside the city, and the bus station is on the outer ring road. They'll both have the flags flying for you Carrie!

Hope you have a good holiday there Carrie. I was only repeating what Sky News was saying, and it said it was a coastal resort popular with tourists.
