Brest (Belarus) is served by Brest Airport (BQT), a small regional airport that typically handles mostly domestic and short international flights. It can be a practical choice for budget-minded travelers and regional carriers rather than large flag-ship hubs. The airport sits roughly 10–12 km from the city center; taxis usually take about 15–25 minutes while buses and shared shuttles can take 25–40 minutes with modest fares. Rental cars are available but selection may be limited. Pros: close to downtown, straightforward check-in and short walking distances. Cons: fewer flight options and amenities compared with major international hubs, and limited late-night services.

Istanbul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) is the city’s large international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers; fares there can be mid-to-high relative to budget terminals. It sits about 35–50 km northwest of the historic center, with a dedicated express bus, Havaist shuttles and taxi rides typically taking 40–60 minutes depending on traffic (taxis and private transfers usually cost more than shared shuttles). Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Asian side tends to host low-cost and charter airlines and can be cheaper on many routes; it’s roughly 40–50 km from central Sultanahmet, with public buses, Havatas shuttles and taxis taking 45–90 minutes. Pros: IST offers wide connectivity and modern facilities; SAW can be budget-friendly and quicker for eastern neighborhoods. Cons: both can be affected by Istanbul traffic and transfers across the Bosphorus may add time and cost.

In different months, ticket prices from Brest to Istanbul vary: minimum — $171 (November 2025), maximum — $336 (January 2026). Typically, the flight costs $258–$601.
