Istanbul Airport (IST) to Le Meridien Istanbul Etiler transfer

Landing on the European side of Istanbul and heading towards Beşiktaş brings you onto the main D-020 route. Reserving your Istanbul Airport (IST) to Le Meridien Istanbul Etiler transfer with us ensures our driver greets you in the arrivals hall with a personalised name board. From the terminal exit, the road journey covers 49 kilometres before reaching the hotel grounds.

When the roads remain clear, our driver takes you straight to the hotel entrance in about 39 minutes. During the evening peak hours, heavier traffic can extend that travel time up to 64 minutes. Because we actively track your flight status throughout the day, our team adjusts your pickup schedule whenever your arrival time changes.

Attempting the journey using public transport involves boarding the M11 metro line to Gayrettepe before connecting to the 59N city bus towards Narin Sitesi. Following that public transit route requires a transfer between lines as well as walking more than a kilometre while carrying your luggage between stations. The entire trip across both transit connections typically takes 72 minutes from start to finish.

Public transport fares must be paid separately for every traveller, whereas booking a private transfer provides a fixed price for the entire vehicle. A travelling group of four shares a single spacious vehicle with ample dedicated space for five bags. We assist with all your luggage at the terminal curb and drive your party directly to Etiler without intermediate stops.
