Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s primary international hub, serving a wide mix of full-service carriers and many global connections; it’s typically viewed as the city’s premium long‑haul gateway. Located roughly 35–45 km northwest of the historic center, transfer times to Sultanahmet or Taksim can be about 40–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares often falling in a broad local range; Havaist and IETT airport buses offer economical, 60–90 minute rides. The terminal is generally modern and spacious with many lounges and retail options, though busy peak periods can mean longer queues. Pros: extensive route network and amenities; cons: longer transfer distances and variable traffic delays. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) functions mainly as a cost‑conscious alternative on Istanbul’s Asian side and commonly hosts low‑cost and regional carriers alongside some scheduled full‑service flights. It lies about 35–50 km southeast of central areas like Sultanahmet and can take 45–90 minutes by road depending on traffic; public airport shuttle buses and municipal buses provide cheaper options, while shared shuttles or taxis are faster but typically cost more. The airport is usually less crowded than the main hub, offering simpler connections for budget travelers, but may have fewer long‑haul services and fewer premium facilities. Pros: generally lower fares and convenience for Asian‑side travelers; cons: longer cross‑city transfers to European attractions.

Surgut’s main airport, Surgut International Airport (SGC), functions as a regional hub for oil-industry traffic and connects the city with Moscow and other Russian destinations; it can also handle some international flights on occasion.

The airport sits roughly 13–20 km southeast of the city center; travel by taxi takes about 20–30 minutes and is commonly priced within a modest fixed range, while local buses and marshrutkas offer cheaper transfers in roughly 30–40 minutes. Pros: relatively modern terminal and direct links for business travelers; cons: limited route network and fewer low-cost options compared with larger hubs.
