Dushanbe International Airport (DYU) serves as Tajikistan’s main gateway and typically handles most international and regional flights, including carriers like Somon Air, Tajik Air and several Russian and Central Asian airlines. It’s positioned about 15–20 km south of the city center, with travel time usually around 20–40 minutes depending on traffic. Transport options include taxis, private transfers and occasional shuttle services; fares can typically range from modest to moderate relative to local standards. The airport is convenient for connecting international travelers and often seen as the primary, full-service option, though facilities can be basic compared with larger hubs. Pros: direct international links and proximity to town; cons: limited low-cost carrier presence and variable on-site amenities.
Istanbul is served by two main airports with different roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) on the European side functions as the city’s international hub, handling most long-haul and premium carriers as well as many flag-carrier and full-service flights; fares can be mid-to-high depending on demand and season. It’s about 40–50 km from the historic center, reachable by taxi (roughly 40–60 minutes, fares vary), Havaist and IETT airport buses (about 60–90 minutes, modest fares), or the expanding metro link which shortens journey times. Pros: extensive facilities and wide route network; cons: longer transfer times and larger distances around the terminal.
Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) on the Asian side is typically positioned as a secondary, budget- and low-cost-friendly option, serving many low-cost and regional carriers with generally competitive pricing on short- and medium-haul routes. It sits roughly 35–45 km from central Istanbul, with travel options including taxis (around 40–70 minutes), municipal and private airport shuttles (60–90 minutes, economical fares), and regular buses; a future metro extension aims to improve connections. Pros: often lower fares and shorter queues; cons: fewer long-haul choices and longer onward transfers to some central districts.
