Flights to Istanbul Airport (IST)

Flights to Istanbul Airport connect you to one of the most culturally rich cities in the world. Emirates flights land and depart from the International Terminal.

The airport is 25 km (16 mi) away from Taksim Square, and you can make the journey to the city center by taxi, metro, or bus. The metro is the fastest and cheapest way to get to the city. However, if you’re traveling in a group you can take the Havataş Airport Shuttle Service. Taxi and car rental services are also available to take you to and from the airport.

Whether you’ve just arrived, are in transit, or have some time to spare before your flight, Istanbul Airport offers you ample opportunity to shop, dine, and relax. You can indulge in some last-minute retail therapy at the duty free shop. Or grab a meal and some Turkish coffee before your flight.

If you’re flying First Class or Business Class with Emirates, you can enjoy complimentary access to the Emirates Lounge located in the international terminal.
