Istanbul is served primarily by Istanbul Airport (IST), a large international hub that handles long-haul and transfer traffic and is typically used by full-service carriers, and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW), a budget-friendly option on the Asian side favored by low-cost airlines. IST sits roughly 35–50 km northwest of the historic center and can be reached by taxi, Havaist shuttle buses (about 45–90 minutes depending on traffic) or metro plus bus connections; fares can range from moderate to higher for taxis. SAW is about 35–45 km southeast of central districts with airport buses and taxis taking 45–90 minutes; prices tend to be slightly lower for budget carriers but transfers between airports can add time and cost. IST offers extensive lounges and transfer facilities; SAW is often simpler and more cost-conscious, though both can be affected by Istanbul’s traffic and may require buffer time for connections.
Nuremberg Airport (NUE) is a regional international airport that typically handles a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers, making it a convenient hub for both business and leisure travelers in Bavaria. It’s situated about 7–10 km north of the city center, with S-Bahn trains reaching central Nuremberg in roughly 12–20 minutes and local buses taking around 20–30 minutes; expect fares to be modest and aligned with regional public-transport rates. Taxi or rideshare trips are faster but can be noticeably pricier. The terminal is compact and usually easy to navigate, offering basic shops and lounges, though choices can be more limited than at larger German hubs. Travelers will find quick access and reasonable prices are common, while options for long-haul connections and extensive amenities can be fewer compared with major international airports.
