Istanbul Airport (IST) is the city’s main international hub and the larger, more premium option for long-haul and intercontinental flights, with many full-service carriers and Star Alliance, SkyTeam and oneworld partners present. Located about 40–50 km northwest of the historic center, typical transfers take 35–60 minutes by taxi or private transfer depending on traffic, while the Havaist and IETT coach services link key districts in roughly 40–90 minutes for modest fares; a new metro line also provides a faster rail option. Pros: modern terminals, broad amenities and many long-haul connections; cons: distance from central neighborhoods and variable road congestion. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) functions largely as Istanbul’s budget and secondary international airport, frequently used by low-cost carriers and some regional airlines for domestic and short-haul international routes. Situated on the Asian side about 35–45 km from Sultanahmet/ Taksim, surface travel typically ranges from 40–70 minutes by taxi or Havatas shuttle buses, and a commuter rail link combined with metro connections can be quicker at peak times; fares are generally lower than for private transfers. Pros: often better value fares and shorter queues for budget carriers; cons: fewer long-haul options and longer cross-city transfers if you need to reach the European side.
Fly direct from Istanbul to Delhi for the fastest, most convenient way to bridge Turkey and India—skip the layovers and arrive refreshed and on schedule.

Delhi is served primarily by Indira Gandhi International (DEL), the country’s major international hub that handles most long-haul and full-service carriers alongside some low-cost airlines; it typically offers a wide range of connections and premium facilities. The airport sits about 15–20 km southwest of central New Delhi, with the Airport Express Metro taking roughly 20–25 minutes and taxis or app-based rides usually 30–60 minutes depending on traffic; fares can range from modest metro tickets to mid-range taxi fares. A secondary airport is the smaller Hindon/Ghaziabad (for select regional and budget services) on the city’s east side. Pros: extensive flight options, modern terminals, good rail link; cons: busy peak-period crowds and road congestion can increase surface-transfer times.
