Istanbul Airport (IST) is the city’s main international hub, handling the bulk of long-haul and transfer traffic with major carriers and full-service airlines alongside some international low-cost operators. Located about 40–50 km northwest of the historic center, transfer times to central districts can be 35–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; airport shuttles and private transfers are common, and a metro line connects to the city with typical fares in the low single-digit euros/TL equivalent. Pros: extensive services, many onward connections and modern facilities; cons: longer transfer distances and sometimes heavier traffic when traveling to central Istanbul. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) serves as a prominent budget and secondary international airport on the Asian side, favored by low-cost carriers and some regional operators. It sits roughly 35–45 km from central European-side attractions and about 20–30 km from parts of the Asian-side city; travel by shared shuttle or Havatas bus usually takes 45–90 minutes, while taxis can be quicker but pricier — expect variable fares reflecting distance and traffic. Pros: often lower fares on budget routes and convenient Asian-side access; cons: fewer long-haul options and longer commutes to the historic peninsula when compared with the main airport.

Shiraz International Airport (SYZ) serves as the main gateway for Shiraz and the Fars province, typically functioning as a regional and international hub rather than a low-cost base. You’ll usually find a mix of national carriers and some Middle Eastern international airlines operating scheduled and seasonal services. The airport sits about 15–20 km northeast of Shiraz city center; road transfers typically take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, with taxis and private transfers being the most common options and local fares often perceived as affordable. There’s limited public-bus service for budget travelers. Pros: relatively compact terminal and straightforward navigation; cons: facilities can be basic compared with larger international hubs and peak-time waits may occur.
