Istanbul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) is the primary international hub for long-haul and transfer traffic, typically hosting full-service carriers such as Turkish Airlines; it can be slightly pricier on ground services but often offers extensive route options. Located about 40–45 km from the historic center, transfer times to central districts are usually 40–60 minutes by taxi or 45–75 minutes by public transport; airport shuttle buses and the new metro line provide fares commonly in the low-to-mid range for city connections. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) functions more as a secondary/budget-friendly gateway on the Asian side, often favored by low-cost carriers and regional flights. It sits roughly 35–45 km from central Istanbul, with bus and Havatas shuttles taking around 60–90 minutes depending on traffic; taxis can be faster but more expensive. Pros: IST offers broad connectivity and modern facilities, while SAW can yield lower fares and easier access for Asian-side neighborhoods. Cons: both can be affected by heavy traffic and require generous transfer time between each other.

Montpellier–Méditerranée Airport (MPL) serves as the region’s main international gateway but can feel compact compared with larger hubs, often mixing budget and regional carriers with some seasonal European services. Typical airlines include low-cost operators and French domestic carriers, so fares can be competitive—especially for short-haul routes during off-peak times. The airport sits about 7–8 km southwest of Montpellier city centre; taxi or rideshare trips normally take 15–20 minutes, while the regular tram Line 1 plus shuttle options can take roughly 25–35 minutes with modest ticket costs. Pros: quick check-ins and short transfer times; cons: limited long-haul connectivity and fewer lounge or shopping options than major hubs.
