Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s main international gateway and a large hub for full-service carriers, typically handling long-haul and transfer traffic for national and global airlines. Located about 35–45 km northwest of the historic city center, travel times by taxi or private transfer generally run 40–60 minutes depending on traffic; the metro and Havaist shuttle buses offer budget-friendly options in roughly 45–70 minutes with fares usually in the moderate range. As a modern, spacious facility it tends to be comfortable for connections, though distances between gates and from arrival to ground transport can be significant. Prices for flights there can be mid-to-premium compared with secondary airports. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) on the Asian side functions more as a cost-competitive, low-cost and regional hub, commonly used by budget carriers and some full-service airlines for domestic and short-haul international routes. It sits about 35–50 km southeast of central Istanbul; road transfers may take 45–90 minutes by taxi or bus depending on peak congestion, while shuttle services and local buses present cheaper alternatives with longer travel times. SAW is typically perceived as more budget-friendly, but it can be less convenient for travelers staying on the European side due to longer cross-city transfers. The terminal is generally compact and straightforward, though peak periods can feel crowded.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Istanbul to Guayaquil is $512 (March 2026), while the maximum is $882 (December 2025). On average, a ticket costs $566–$631.

José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport (GYE) serves Guayaquil as the city’s main international gateway and regional hub, handling both full-service and low-cost carriers—expect flights from LATAM, Avianca and several budget operators. Located about 5–10 km northwest of downtown, transfer times to central Guayaquil are typically 15–30 minutes by taxi or rideshare, with fares generally in a modest local range; public buses and airport shuttles can be slower but cheaper. The airport is convenient for intercontinental connections and has basic passenger amenities, though peak times can be busy and amenities may be more limited than at larger hubs. Overall it’s a practical choice for most international and domestic travelers.
