Istanbul Airport (IST) is Turkey’s major international hub, handling most long-haul and many full-service carrier flights; it can be busy but offers extensive passenger facilities. Located roughly 40–50 km northwest of the historic city center, journey times vary from about 35–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares commonly higher than commuter options; Havaist and IETT airport buses typically take around 45–90 minutes and can be a more economical choice. High-speed rail and metro connections have been expanding, improving access. Pros: modern terminals, broad international route network and amenities; cons: distance, potential for long transfer times and peak-hour traffic delays. Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) mainly serves low-cost and regional carriers and can be a budget-friendly alternative for domestic and European flights. It sits on the Asian side, approximately 35–45 km from central Sultanahmet or Taksim, so transfers to the historic core usually take 45–75 minutes by road; shuttle buses and public transit are typically cheaper but can be slower than taxis. There are also private shuttle services connecting major hubs. Pros: often lower fares and less crowding on some routes; cons: farther from the main European-side attractions and fewer long-haul options, so connections can require more time.

Tabriz International Airport (TBZ) is the city’s main air gateway and typically functions as a regional hub handling both domestic and international flights, with carriers such as Iran Air, Mahan Air and several local operators.

The airport sits about 5–8 km northeast of Tabriz city center; taxis and shared minibuses usually take 15–30 minutes depending on traffic, with fares commonly modest for local standards. Pros include relatively short transfer times and basic passenger facilities; cons can be limited international connectivity and occasional crowding during peak periods.
