We will arrive to Istanbul on the first day of November, and after 12 hours the flight will continue. How can you best get into the city center from the new airport?
Uskudar is like the “ugly girl” of Istanbul. Even though it is a high population area, whenever it comes to airport connections, they are always pathetic. The private Havas Bus line goes to Taksim and Kadikoy, forgeting Uskudar, the regular bus line also goes from Kadikoy to the Sabahinden, again forgetting Uskudar (it would be very easy to start from Uskudar, stop in Kadikoy, and continue) and now the new airport again they forget Uskudar. I have the feeling either Uskudar people don’t travel, or as I suspect they are used to take crap and swallow all of it without complain. They have been constructing the metro area for nearly 6 years, having chaos everyday in the port area, and no one seems to mind. They are content with it as long as you construct a huge unnecessary humongous square.
On the other hand, 2 of 3 metros of Asian side, Marmaray and M5 call at Uskudar. 🙂
How i can get from Sabiha airport into the new airport?
Good question. Fastest way is to get to Kozyatagi by airport shuttle, get back to Yenisahra (1 station) by metro and get to Havabus (Sabiha Gokcen shuttle). By next year, it’ll be possible to get to Sabiha Gokcen by metro from Kozyatagi.
Are there any hotels close to the new airport? What towns?
