Cheap Flights from Marrakech to Istanbul Starting at $59

Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s main international gateway and a large global hub that typically handles most long‑haul and premium carriers as well as many full‑service European airlines. Located about 40–50 km northwest of the historic centre, transfers to Sultanahmet or Taksim can take 40–60 minutes by car depending on traffic; Havaist and public buses take around an hour with fares usually in the low single‑digit euros/TL range, while taxi rides cost more. The facility is modern and extensive, offering a wide range of lounges and services, but its size can mean longer walking times and security queues at peak hours. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) serves Istanbul’s Anatolian side and often positions itself as the city’s more budget‑friendly option, popular with low‑cost carriers and regional services. It sits roughly 35–45 km southeast of central Istanbul; road transfers to Kadıköy or Taksim typically take 45–75 minutes depending on traffic, with buses and shuttle services offering economical options and taxis costing noticeably more. SAW can be faster for commuters from the Asian side and may offer cheaper fares, though facilities are generally smaller and peak‑time congestion can affect punctuality.

Marrakech-Menara (RAK) is the city’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers, making it a common choice for both leisure and business travelers. Located just 6–8 km from the old city, transfer times to central Marrakech are usually short — roughly 10–20 minutes by taxi and 20–40 minutes by shared shuttle or public bus; fares can range from modest fixed taxi rates to a few euros for buses. The airport’s compact layout makes arrivals and departures generally straightforward, though peak tourist seasons can bring queues. Its convenience for quick city access is a plus, while limited late-night transport options and occasional crowding are potential drawbacks.
