Istanbul Airport (IST) serves as Turkey’s main international hub and is typically the city’s premium long-haul gateway, handling most full-service carriers and many international connections. Located about 40–50 km northwest of the historic center, it’s usually reached in 35–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; ride fares can vary widely but are generally higher than public transit. Havaist airport buses and some city buses connect to central districts in roughly 60–90 minutes for modest fares, while limited metro links are expanding. Pros: modern terminals, plentiful lounges and dining options; cons: longer transfer times to the old city and occasional heavy traffic en route. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) generally functions as Istanbul’s secondary international airport and often caters to budget and low-cost airlines alongside some full-service carriers. It sits on the city’s Asian side, around 35–45 km from central Sultanahmet/ Taksim areas, with typical travel times of 40–70 minutes by road depending on traffic. Havabus, municipal buses and private shuttles provide cheaper connections (usually longer but more economical), while the newer metro and commuter links are gradually improving journey times. Pros: often lower fares and less crowding than the main hub; cons: fewer long-haul services and longer crossings to European-side attractions.

The airport offers extensive domestic and transpacific connections and generally good passenger amenities, though it can be busy during peak hours; for cheaper fares or faster check-in you may find some advantages in nearby budget-focused carriers or alternate airport choices during high-demand periods.
