Kadıköy to Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) Vito transfer
Kadıköy to Sabiha Gökçen is a short drive of 35–50 minutes. Both are on the Asian side, so there is no bridge to worry about.
What is the road like?
The driver joins the E-5 or the TEM motorway at Göztepe or Kozyatağı and enters the airport from the Kurtköy exit. The E-5 is shorter but often clogs between Bostancı and Kartal. In the evening commute traffic flows heavily towards Pendik, and that is the direction you are going.
Good to know
At Sabiha Gökçen the security check starts at the terminal door, and in summer and before public holidays the queue at the door can get long. Many flights leave from here early in the day. Around 05:00 the drive takes half an hour, and the time goes at the terminal rather than on the road. If you are being picked up from the Kadıköy market area, choose a meeting point on a main street.

Frequently asked questions

In September 2026 the average is 2,200 – 3,000 ₺, about 39 – 54 €. The price is one way and per vehicle, not per person. The vehicle owner who replies to your request confirms the exact amount.
How long does it take from Kadıköy to Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) in a Vito?
The road is about 30–35 km and the drive takes 35–50 min. At busy hours, plan for the upper end.
The metro goes from Kadıköy to the airport. When is a Vito needed?
The M4 metro runs all the way from Kadıköy to the airport and does the job if you are travelling alone in the daytime with little luggage. On weekdays it does not run after midnight, so it is not an option for flights before dawn. With children, a lot of luggage or a group of five or six, a Vito is more comfortable.
Is it cheaper if I am picked up in Pendik or Kartal?
Those districts are closer to the airport than Kadıköy, so the price is generally a little lower. The average table is based on central Kadıköy. Write your address in the request and the owner will price it accordingly.
How long before my flight should I leave?
The general rule is to be at the terminal 3 hours before an international departure and 2 hours before a domestic one. Add the 35–50 min drive and some margin for traffic on top. If you put your flight time in the request, the owner will suggest a pickup time to match.
