Istanbul has two major airports: Istanbul Airport (IST) on the European side and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Asian side. IST is usually closer to Sultanahmet, Taksim and Şişli, while SAW suits Kadıköy and Ataşehir. Hagia Sophia, Topkapı Palace, the Grand Bazaar and a Bosphorus cruise are first-visit essentials, and spring and autumn are the most comfortable seasons for exploring on foot.

Turkish citizens can fly on domestic routes with their national ID card; other travellers need a passport. Where the airline provides it, each flight shows its baggage allowance in the search results. You can add your hotel, an airport transfer and tours to your flight, and choose all four on Build Your Trip for a package discount. Your card is charged once your ticket has been issued.
