Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s primary international hub and typically handles long-haul and transfer traffic for full-service carriers and global alliances. Positioned on the European side north of the city, it can be perceived as mid-to-upper range in fares compared with budget alternatives. The airport lies roughly 35–45 km from central districts; travel options include the M11 metro and Havaist/shuttle buses (about 35–60 minutes, fares often within a modest range), plus taxis which are faster but costlier. Pros are extensive international connections and modern facilities; cons can include longer transfers to some central neighborhoods and occasional congestion at peak times.
Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is Istanbul’s secondary international gateway, commonly associated with low-cost and regional carriers as well as some full-service airlines. Located on the Asian side, it is usually seen as budget-friendly compared with the main hub, particularly for point-to-point flights. The airport sits approximately 30–45 km from central areas across the city; travelers typically use Havatas/Havabus and municipal buses or private shuttles (roughly 40–75 minutes depending on traffic) and taxis for quicker but pricier rides. Advantages include lower fares and convenience for eastern districts; drawbacks can include fewer intercontinental connections and longer cross-city transfers.
Calgary International Airport (YYC) serves as Alberta’s main international gateway and a regional hub for both full-service and low-cost carriers — think WestJet, Air Canada and several U.S. and seasonal European services. It’s located about 10–20 km northeast of downtown Calgary, with drive times typically 20–30 minutes by taxi or ride‑share depending on traffic; the Calgary Airport Express and public buses can take 30–50 minutes with fares usually in the low single digits to mid‑teens CAD. YYC is generally perceived as mid-range in price compared with larger transcontinental hubs, and offers a modern terminal, good dining and lounges; on the downside, winter weather can affect schedules and transit times.
