Tijuana International Airport (TIJ) acts as the main international gateway for the city and a convenient cross-border alternative for San Diego travelers. It typically handles a mix of low-cost carriers and regional airlines, along with some international services to the U.S. and Mexico City, so fares can often be competitive compared with nearby U.S. airports. The airport sits just a few kilometers from downtown Tijuana and is reachable by taxi or rideshare in roughly 10–20 minutes; the Cross Border Xpress pedestrian bridge links directly to San Diego in about 5–15 minutes from the terminal (fees apply). Pros: short transfers and flexible carrier mix; cons: facilities are compact and can be busy at peak times.
Istanbul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) is the new international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers; it can be pricier on some routes but often competes well thanks to frequent connections. It sits around 40–50 km from the historic city center, with the fastest links including the Havaist shuttle buses (about 40–90 minutes, fares typically moderate) and taxis (30–60 minutes, fares higher). Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) functions more as a secondary airport popular with low-cost and regional airlines; it’s located roughly 35–45 km on the Anatolian side, accessible by express buses and the metrobus plus shuttle combos (45–90 minutes, generally cheaper). Pros: IST offers extensive international connectivity and modern facilities, while SAW can be more budget-friendly and convenient for eastern districts. Cons: both can involve lengthy transfers in traffic and varying transfer costs depending on time of day.
