Istanbul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) functions as the city’s large international hub, handling long-haul and full-service carriers as well as some low-cost operators; it sits about 40–50 km from the historical center, with official shuttle buses and taxis taking roughly 40–60 minutes depending on traffic and costing in the mid-range for Turkey. Nearby Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) is typically positioned for budget and regional flights, located about 35–45 km on the Asian side; public buses and shared shuttles can take 60–90 minutes while taxis are faster but pricier. Pros: IST offers extensive amenities and connections; SAW can be cheaper and less crowded. Cons: both can involve long transfers to central districts and variable traffic delays.
