About this transfer

Landing on the Asian side of the city places you quite far from Fatih on the European side. Arranging our Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Akgün İstanbul Hotel, WorldHotels Crafted Collection transfer eliminates the need to coordinate multiple transit options after a flight. We meet you in the terminal arrivals hall holding a sign with your name and assist you with your bags directly to our vehicle.

The road journey covers 49 kilometres following the Anadolu Otoyolu and usually takes around 53 minutes in clear traffic conditions. We take care of driving across the city to drop you directly at the hotel entrance on the European side. Journey times shift throughout the day, with morning traffic extending the trip significantly compared to quieter overnight hours.

By comparison, public transport requires boarding the M4 metro line at the airport station, switching to the Marmaray line, and transferring once more to the M1B subway line. That journey involves two train changes while carrying luggage and takes roughly 94 minutes of travel time. The final stop at Topkapı - Ulubatlı station leaves you just outside the property, requiring an additional walk to the hotel lobby.

Our service operates at a fixed rate from €55 for the entire private vehicle, making the cost straightforward to divide among everyone traveling together. We include flight tracking and waiting time automatically, so our driver adjusts to flight schedule changes without any extra steps on your part. We meet you promptly at the exit, handle your luggage, and set off immediately.
