Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s main international hub, handling most long-haul and many transfer flights and serving flag carrier Turkish Airlines alongside major global carriers. It’s located about 35–45 km northwest of the historic city center, with travel times typically 35–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; Havaist and IETT airport buses run frequent services (roughly 45–75 minutes) with fares generally in the low single-digit to mid-single-digit-euro equivalent range, and a metro link cutting journey times when using interchanges. Pros: modern facilities, lots of lounges and transfer options; cons: distance from central neighborhoods and longer transfer walks between some gates. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) functions as Istanbul’s secondary international and low-cost carrier hub, attracting many budget and point-to-point regional flights. It sits on the Asian side about 35–50 km southeast of central Sultanahmet and Taksim, with journey times often 45–75 minutes by taxi and airport express buses or shared shuttles; fares tend to be modest but can rise with traffic. Pros: usually lower fares and a compact terminal that’s easy to navigate; cons: farther from European-side attractions, fewer long-haul options, and peak-hour road congestion can extend travel times.

Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport (TLL) is Estonia’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers, including regional European operators. Located roughly 4–5 km southeast of the Old Town, it’s a short transfer to the centre — taxis and ride-hailing can take about 10–15 minutes, while city buses and trams are usually 15–25 minutes with modest fares. The airport is compact and generally easy to navigate, making transfers and short-haul connections convenient, though peak times can feel busy. Ground transport is affordable and frequent, but options are fewer than at larger hubs, so plan slightly more time for connections during busy periods.
