Bursa to Istanbul Airport (IST) Vito transfer
Bursa to Istanbul Airport takes two and a half to three hours in a Vito. Most people flying abroad from Bursa leave from Istanbul, because Yenişehir Airport has a limited schedule.
What is the road like?
The road follows the Istanbul–İzmir Motorway to the Osmangazi Bridge, crosses the gulf and joins the Northern Marmara Motorway at Gebze. After the Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge the motorway continues all the way to the terminal. Since the route never enters Istanbul city traffic, the travel time stays largely predictable.
Good to know
Most of the time is lost inside Bursa. From Nilüfer it is ten minutes to the motorway; from Yıldırım or Çekirge it can take half an hour in the morning. If you are being picked up from a hotel on Uludağ, add another hour, and in winter discuss chains beforehand. For night flights the road is empty, but the driver needs to be rested, so do not leave the pickup time to the last minute.
What does the price include?
Prices shown are one-way and per vehicle; bridge and motorway tolls are usually included. Waiting time at the pickup address, extra stops, night rates and peak-season surcharges are agreed with the listing owner.
The prices on this page are market averages. Each vehicle owner sets their own price; you see the final price and availability in the reply to your request.
