There are most likely no direct flights on the Istanbul — Saratov route
Istanbul is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) is the city's large international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers; it’s generally perceived as a bit more premium and can be farther from central districts — about 35–50 km depending on direction. Ground options include the M11 metro and Havaist shuttles (roughly 40–60 minutes to Taksim or Sultanahmet) or taxis (45–75 minutes), with fares varying by route and time of day. Pros: modern facilities, many lounges and direct long-haul connections; cons: longer transfers and sometimes heavier traffic. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) functions more as a budget- and low-cost-carrier gateway on the Asian side, often used for cheaper or regional flights. It sits around 35–45 km from central European-side neighborhoods but closer to Anatolian side areas. Typical transfers are HAVABUS shuttles and municipal buses (40–70 minutes), commuter ferries combined with buses (45–80 minutes), or taxis (35–65 minutes); costs are usually lower than premium airport transfers but depend on route. Pros: generally quicker for Asian-side travelers and budget fares; cons: fewer long-haul choices and potentially slower cross-Bosphorus transfers. Both airports can be practical depending on airline and itinerary, so travelers usually weigh convenience, price, and which side of the city they need to reach.
