Kadıköy to Istanbul Airport (IST) Vito transfer
Kadıköy is on the Asian side and Istanbul Airport is in the north of the European side. The drive takes 60–85 minutes, and the Bosphorus crossing decides how long.
What is the road like?
There are three crossings. The Eurasia Tunnel is the closest to Kadıköy, with its entrance a few kilometres away. The Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge connects to Hasdal along the TEM motorway. The Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge is the longest way round, but it runs down to the terminal on the Northern Marmara Motorway without touching city traffic. The driver picks whichever is moving at that hour.
Good to know
Between 07:00 and 10:00 traffic flows from Asia to Europe, which means that on the way to a morning flight you are going in the busy direction. At those hours, plan for more than 85 minutes. In the afternoon and at night the crossing eases. Vehicles cannot enter the Kadıköy market area or Bahariye, so the driver picks you up from the nearest main street.
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.
