Istanbul's Asian-side airport — smaller, and a very different drive.
Flight information, terminals and transfer destinations for every airport we serve.
Sabiha Gökçen operates from a single passenger terminal.
International and domestic flights share one building, with separate arrivals and departures levels. It is far more compact than Istanbul Airport.
Baggage reclaim and the meeting area are on the arrivals level, directly below departures. Your driver waits here with a name board.

A few practical notes for your arrival or departure.
Arrive at least 2 hours before a short-haul flight and 3 hours before a long-haul departure.
SAW is on the Asian side at Pendik. Sultanahmet and Taksim are across the Bosphorus — budget 60–90 minutes, and considerably more in rush hour.
Do not confuse SAW with Istanbul Airport (IST) on the European side. They are roughly 70 km apart and a transfer between them is a long, expensive drive.
Duty-free, cafés, currency exchange and car hire desks are available in the terminal.
