Istanbul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) is the new international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers; it’s located about 35–45 km northwest of the historic center, with travel times typically 40–70 minutes by taxi or 45–90 minutes by Havaist shuttle or metro link, fares usually ranging from moderate to higher depending on service. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Anatolian side is more budget- and low-cost-carrier oriented and lies roughly 35–50 km southeast of central areas, often 45–90 minutes by road or 60–90+ minutes by public bus and shuttle, usually cheaper. Pros: IST offers extensive international connections and modern facilities; SAW can be easier for low-cost itineraries and some Asian-side neighborhoods. Cons: both can be affected by traffic and longer transfers to the city compared with smaller airports.
