Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s primary international gateway and a major connecting hub for full-service carriers, typically handling most long-haul and transfer traffic. It sits on the city’s European side about 35–45 km from the historic center; travel time is commonly 35–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, or about 40–60 minutes by Havaist shuttle buses and 45–60 minutes on metro/rail connections when using transfers, with fares usually ranging from modest shuttle fees to typical taxi rates. The airport tends to offer a wide range of on-site facilities and lounge options, making it convenient for international connections, though journey times to central districts can be longer and ground transport costs higher than from smaller airports.

Osh Airport (OSS) serves as the primary gateway to southern Kyrgyzstan and functions mainly as a regional and domestic hub with some international connections, particularly to nearby Central Asian capitals. It typically handles carriers that operate short-haul routes and low-cost or national airlines rather than large global network carriers. Located around 10–12 km from Osh city center, transfer times can be roughly 15–30 minutes by taxi or car depending on traffic; shared minibuses may take a bit longer. Fares to town are usually modest and can be in the low single-digit USD range for public minibuses, with taxis costing more. The airport’s strengths are its proximity and straightforward layout, but facilities can be basic compared with major international hubs, and services may be limited outside peak times.
