Benina International Airport (BEN) serves Benghazi as the city’s main international gateway and typically handles a mix of regional and charter traffic rather than major global hubs. Flights are often operated by North African and Middle Eastern carriers, with routes that can be perceived as reasonably priced compared with larger Mediterranean airports. The airport sits about 20–25 km southeast of Benghazi’s centre; taxis and shared minibuses are the common options, usually taking 25–45 minutes depending on traffic and security checks, with fares that can vary widely. Pros: relatively compact terminal and straightforward layout make transfers simple. Cons: facilities can be basic and services may be intermittent, so travelers should allow extra time for check-in and local procedures.

Istanbul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) on the European side functions as the city’s principal international hub, typically handling long-haul and star-alliance carriers; it can be pricier on transfers but often offers the widest route choice. Located roughly 40–50 km from the historic center, journey times by taxi or car usually range 35–60 minutes depending on traffic, while Havaist shuttles and public buses take about 45–75 minutes with fares commonly in a moderate range. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Asian side tends to cater to low-cost and regional airlines and can be perceived as more budget-friendly for point-to-point fares. It lies around 35–45 km from central Istanbul, with Havabus shuttles or metro+bus combos taking about 45–90 minutes; taxis are faster but costlier. Pros: IST offers superior connectivity and facilities for international transfers; SAW can be easier for budget fares and some short-haul routes. Cons: both airports can be far from the historic core and subject to heavy traffic, and transfers between them may take substantial time.
