Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s primary international hub and a major long-haul gateway, typically served by full-service carriers and many global alliances; it can feel premium compared with older facilities. Located about 35–50 km northwest of the historic center, travel times by taxi or private car are generally 35–60 minutes depending on traffic, while the Havaist and public buses take roughly 45–75 minutes with fares usually in the budget-to-moderate range; a metro extension also links the airport to the city. Pros: modern terminals, broad route network and ample amenities. Cons: distance from central districts and variable journey times during peak hours. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is Istanbul’s main secondary airport, often positioned as a budget- and low-cost-carrier-friendly option with many regional and European connections. It sits on the city’s Asian side, roughly 35–50 km from Taksim and central tourist areas; taxis and shared shuttles typically take 40–70 minutes, while Havabüs buses and commuter options can be 50–90 minutes depending on routes, with fares usually on the lower side. Pros: generally lower fares and short queues for low-cost airlines, convenient for Asian-side neighborhoods. Cons: longer transit times to European district centers and fewer premium carrier options.
Rafael Núñez International Airport (CTG) serves Cartagena as its main international gateway and can be considered a mid-sized hub combining both full-service and low-cost carriers, with airlines typically offering regional and some long-haul links.

Taxis and airport shuttles are the most common choices, with fares generally ranging from modest flat rates to slightly higher negotiated prices for late-night trips; ride-hailing services may also be available.
