Istanbul’s airports serve distinct roles: Istanbul Airport (IST) is the city’s main international hub, handling long‑haul carriers and full‑service airlines, while Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Asian side is often used by low‑cost and regional operators. IST sits roughly 35–45 km northwest of the historic center; journeys by taxi or rideshare can take 40–60 minutes depending on traffic, and airport shuttle buses or the new metro line offer cheaper options with fares typically in the modest range. SAW is about 35–45 km southeast, usually a similar travel time by road; public buses and shared transfer services are common budget choices. Pros: IST offers extensive connections and modern facilities; SAW can be more affordable and less crowded for budget travelers. Cons: both can be subject to heavy traffic to central areas and transfers between airports can add significant time to itineraries.

Aden Adde International Airport (MGQ) in Mogadishu functions as Somalia’s primary international gateway and government hub, handling most long-haul and regional services alongside a mix of state and private carriers. Flights are typically priced higher than to secondary Somali airports, though budget regional options can appear. The airport sits roughly 5–7 km from downtown Mogadishu; taxis and occasional shuttle services are the main choices, with journeys usually taking 15–30 minutes depending on security checks and traffic, fares generally being modest but variable. Pros: direct international links and basic passenger facilities; cons: variable service levels, security protocols that can add time, and fewer transfer amenities compared with larger global hubs.
