Istanbul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) is the large international hub handling most long-haul and premium carriers; it’s typically used for intercontinental and transfer traffic and can be pricier on average due to major airlines. Located about 35–45 km from the historic city center, transfer options include Havaist and IETT buses (roughly 60–90 minutes, fares usually in the low single-digit euros/TL), taxis or ride-shares (about 40–60 minutes, fares higher), and a growing rail connection. Pros: modern terminals, many lounges and direct long-haul links; cons: longer transfer times to central districts. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) operates more budget and low-cost carriers and tends to host many domestic and regional flights, often perceived as cheaper for point-to-point leisure travel. It sits on the Asian side, roughly 45–60 km from central European-side sites and closer to some Asian-side neighborhoods. Transport includes Havatas/IETT buses and private shuttles (about 60–90 minutes), commuter bus lines, and taxis or ferries combined with road transfers (times vary; fares usually modest). Pros: competitive fares and easier access if you’re staying on the Asian side; cons: fewer direct long-haul options and potentially longer cross-Bosphorus transfers. Both airports can be practical depending on airline choice and your Istanbul itinerary.

Baltimore/Washington Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) is the region’s major international and domestic gateway, often serving both legacy carriers and low-cost airlines—Southwest, American, Delta and Spirit have notable presence. Flights to BWI can be competitively priced compared with nearby Washington-area airports. The airport sits about 9–11 miles south of downtown Baltimore and roughly 30 miles from central Washington, D.C. Ground access includes MARC and Amtrak trains from nearby stations (about 20–30 minutes to Baltimore Penn Station), local buses and shuttle services, plus taxis and ride-shares (roughly 20–35 minutes to downtown depending on traffic; fares vary by operator). Pros: frequent low-cost options and good rail links; cons: can be busy during peak periods and ground transportation times vary with traffic.
