Kaunas Airport (KUN) is Lithuania’s second-largest airport and typically serves as a regional gateway focused on low-cost and leisure carriers, though a few scheduled international services also operate. It’s often perceived as a budget-friendly alternative to Vilnius for travelers headed to central and western Lithuania. The airport lies roughly 15–20 km from Kaunas city centre, with transfers by bus or taxi usually taking 20–30 minutes; local buses are inexpensive while taxis and ride-hailing can be noticeably faster but cost more. Pros include compact terminals and short walking distances; cons can be fewer year-round connections and limited on-site amenities compared with larger hubs.
Istanbul is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) functions as the primary international hub for long-haul and many full-service carriers, handling the bulk of intercontinental and flag-carrier traffic; it can be pricier on average but often offers extensive connectivity. Located about 35–45 km north of the historic city center, transit options include the new metro line (roughly 35–50 minutes), airport shuttle buses (45–75 minutes) and taxis (40–60 minutes, fares vary with traffic). Pros: modern facilities and many lounges; cons: longer transfer times to central districts during peak traffic. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) is typically a secondary, budget-leaning airport on the Asian side favored by low-cost and some regional carriers, often offering lower fares for point-to-point flights. It sits about 35–45 km southeast of central Istanbul; options include dedicated Havabus shuttles and public buses (40–70 minutes), a dedicated metro link completed in recent years (time depends on connections), and taxis (35–60 minutes). Pros: closer to some Asian-side neighborhoods and often cheaper fares; cons: fewer long-haul options and potentially longer transfers if connecting between airports.
