Gothenburg is served primarily by Gothenburg Landvetter Airport (GOT) and the smaller Gothenburg City Airport (Säve, closed to commercial flights since 2015, but sometimes referenced for general transit). Landvetter acts as the region’s international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carrier connections alongside low-cost operators; fares can be mid-range for Nordic routes and more competitive on budget carriers. The airport sits about 20–25 km east of central Gothenburg, with bus express services taking roughly 20–30 minutes (fares typically in a modest range) and taxis or rideshares taking 25–40 minutes depending on traffic. Pros: modern facilities and frequent international links; cons: slightly farther from the center than some regional airports, which can add time and taxi cost compared with inner-city options.

Istanbul has two main airports serving different needs. Istanbul Airport (IST) is the new international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers; it’s positioned northwest of the city, roughly 40–50 km from the historic center, and can be reached by taxi or shared shuttle in about 40–60 minutes depending on traffic, or by Havaist and IETT buses that typically take 60–90 minutes for lower fares. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Anatolian side often serves low-cost and some regional carriers, about 35–45 km from central sites; travel times can be 45–90 minutes by taxi or Havabus/shuttle, with usually cheaper bus options but longer rides. IST tends to feel more modern and spacious, while SAW can be more budget-friendly but less central; choose based on airline, price, and which side of the city you need to reach.
