Yes Tom, In order for you to enter Turkey you will need : a COVID vaccination certificate or a PCR test, and a HES code that you can get from the "Turkey Traveler Entry" webform 24h before landing. For Quarantine, it's only applicable if the COVID test upon your arrival is positive.

No Kamsir, as long as you're fully vaccinated and you hold a vaccination certificate. Otherwise, you will need a PCR test for Domestic Flights.
