Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport to Maya Hotel requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminönü, and finally a tram or short walk to the hotel. This option typically takes 2-2.5 hours, depending on traffic and connection times. Managing luggage through various transport changes can be challenging, especially during peak hours.
Shared airport shuttles operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops along the route. The service requires advance booking and offers limited flexibility with departure times. The journey can extend beyond 3 hours due to multiple passenger drop-offs. Limited luggage space and fixed pickup points may not suit all travelers' needs.
Regular taxis are available at the airport, but journey times can vary significantly based on traffic conditions. The 51.9 km route typically takes 1-1.5 hours, with fares fluctuating based on traffic and time of day.
