Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport involves multiple transfers. Travelers must first take the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, then ferry to Eminönü, followed by a tram or walk to the Grand Bazaar area. This journey typically takes 2-2.5 hours, depending on connection times and traffic. Managing luggage through various transport changes can be challenging, especially during peak hours.
Shared shuttle services operate from Sabiha Gokcen Airport but require multiple hotel stops before reaching your destination. The unpredictable schedule and extended journey time due to multiple pickups can make this option less convenient. Additionally, shuttles operate on fixed schedules that may not align with your flight arrival time.
While taxis are available at Sabiha Gokcen Airport, the long-distance journey can result in significant fare variations depending on traffic conditions.
