Logan International Airport (BOS) is Boston’s primary international hub, favoured by legacy carriers and many international airlines while low-cost carriers also operate key routes. Located about 3–5 miles northeast of downtown, Logan is typically a 10–25 minute drive depending on traffic. Public transit options include the MBTA Silver Line and Blue Line with combined journeys to the city of roughly 20–40 minutes and fares that generally fall within the local transit range; shared shuttles, taxis, and app rides are common alternatives. Pros: extensive route network and frequent city connections; cons: can be busy and security and transfer times may be longer during peak periods.

Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s primary international hub and typically handles the majority of long-haul and full-service carrier traffic, including flag carrier and major global airlines. Located about 40–50 km northwest of the historic center, it can be reached by metro and high-speed rail links, airport shuttles and taxis; journey times are usually 35–60 minutes by road depending on traffic, with shuttle fares and public transit options generally cheaper than private transfers. The airport is modern and spacious, offering extensive lounges and services, though transfer times can be longer because of its size and distance from central districts. For budget travelers, IST can be pricier to reach from the city center than closer alternatives, but it provides wide route options and frequent connections. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) serves as Istanbul’s secondary international and low-cost carrier focus, with many budget airlines and regional services operating there. It sits on the Asian side, roughly 30–45 km from the historic peninsula; travel options include metro-rail connections, Havabus shuttles, buses and taxis, typically taking 40–75 minutes to central hubs depending on traffic, with shuttle and bus fares usually the most economical. SAW can be more convenient for passengers staying on the Asian side or seeking lower-cost carriers, though facilities are generally smaller than the main hub and peak-hour road congestion may add time to journeys.
