The best mean of transportation since you will be in Thessaloniki is the "Filia/Dostluk Train." The journey is overnight and it takes about 11 hours. Here is a very good website that will help you : http://www.letsgoistanbul.com/tren.htm I am sure you will like Thessaloniki and also Istanbul is a magical city that you should not miss visiting. Enjoy !

You can check with a travel agency or here http://www.metroturizm.com.tr/ they operate a buss line from Salonika to Istanbul every day 2-3 times. Very reliable. You should expect to pay about €40-50

As far as I know the train connection is not operated anymore. I don't have any information on buses; for plane tickets, better to check the companies web sites for normal and special offer rates.
