Is it profitable to withdraw money from a card or bring cash in euros?
I can not decide about the Turkish lira: bring euros with you and exchange for lira or get lira at an ATM with a card in a bank? Let me know if anyone has come across this issue.

))) I will answer one more question of yours.
There is no problem here, you can do this and that. Personally, I don’t bother with a double exchange; abroad, right at the airport at the nearest ATM, I withdraw cash in local currency from my ruble account. The commission is always the standard 200 rubles per transaction (this is individual, it depends on the bank), the exchange rate of the lira against the ruble in my bank suits me personally. With the amounts that I withdraw, I would lose more in a double currency exchange than 200 rubles for cashing out.

If the card is in rubles, then it is better to withdraw from the card. It turns out a direct conversion, not a double one - buying euros for rubles, then lira for euros.

Do not remove from the card under any circumstances. There is a commission for servicing in a foreign bank - the same 200 rubles, + the exchange rate is not the one you see in your bank, but the one established by interbank agreements, it is usually always overpriced to cover the risks of currency instability (the bank gives you currency today, and he himself will buy it tomorrow at an unknown rate, which is why they overestimate the rate in order to be safe). + there is also a commission for transferring from one currency to another.

Take both the euro and the card. You will exchange euros for cash, and you will pay by card where there are terminals - no commission for cashing out.
