Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Istanbul Airport requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the IST-20 airport bus to Yenikapi, followed by a metro or tram connection. Total travel time can exceed 90 minutes, depending on traffic and connection times. Managing luggage through crowded public transport can be challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, potentially extending journey time beyond 2 hours. Limited luggage space and predetermined routes mean less flexibility and comfort. Advanced booking is required, and services may not accommodate early morning or late-night flights.
