Is your hotel on the Asian or the European side?
Sabiha Gökçen is on Istanbul's Asian side, and the same vehicle fare covers listed districts on both sides of the Bosphorus. Select your hotel's actual district and give its complete street address. A place name alone does not confirm vehicle access to the entrance.
Asian side: Kadıköy · Üsküdar · Ataşehir · Maltepe
European side: Fatih (Sultanahmet) · Beyoğlu (Taksim) · Şişli · Beşiktaş · Bakırköy · Zeytinburnu · Kağıthane · Sarıyer
Other destinations need a quote. The driver chooses the crossing for conditions on the day; included tolls do not commit the trip to a named bridge or tunnel.
Sabiha Gökçen to Sultanahmet (Fatih)
Confirm the accessible old-city stopping point before travel. See Sabiha Gökçen to Sultanahmet transfer or get the SAW – Sultanahmet fare.
Which vehicle fits your group and luggage?
Choose the vehicle by passengers and suitcases together, including children and any unusual equipment in your count.
Private van: Mercedes Vito with leather seats and USB charging, for up to six passengers and six bags. It suits families or friends who fit within both limits.
VIP van: Vito VIP with lounge-style seats and tinted glass, for four passengers and four bags. Choose it for its cabin arrangement and smaller group size.
Minibus: Mercedes Sprinter for up to twelve passengers and twelve bags. For more people or luggage than one vehicle can take, send the full requirement so the team can suggest a separately confirmed plan.
Private van
6 passengers · 6 bags
VIP van
4 passengers · 4 bags
Minibus
12 passengers · 12 bags
Can you bring child seats, a pushchair or extra luggage?
Baby and child seats are free; add each child's age, weight and height to your request so the team can confirm a suitable seat. A baby seat is roughly for ages one to three, a booster roughly three to six; suitability depends on the child's details.
Mention pushchairs, skis, golf bags and extra or oversized cases before booking. Passenger capacity alone does not establish luggage fit. For wheelchair equipment or a pet, ask the team before booking so the vehicle and arrangement can be checked.
Where does your driver meet you at Sabiha Gökçen?
At Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) the meeting point is across from area 10 on the arrivals forecourt, where our vehicles wait: look for the red CEO 34 board and for a sign with your name. Our reservation team confirms it again with your booking.
Your driver's name, photo and phone number arrive the day before. Give a reachable mobile or WhatsApp number with your request and keep the confirmation available after landing. If you cannot find the driver, call or message them or our reservation line on +90 501 235 06 70, and stay at the meeting point. Do not leave with anyone else. Send any change to your arrival airport or flight number to the reservation team.
What if your flight lands late at night or is delayed?
If your flight is early or delayed, we track its number and your driver adjusts pickup. The 90 free minutes start at actual landing. There is no flight-delay or early-landing charge, and no night or holiday surcharge on the transfer fare.
If immigration or bags take longer, message the team on WhatsApp. Extra waiting is charged in 15-minute periods only by advance agreement, with its price confirmed before it applies; a very long wait may become a no-show. For a landing after midnight, enter the new calendar date. Availability for your date and hour is confirmed by the team.
How do you book a transfer from your hotel to Sabiha Gökçen?
The ride from your hotel to Sabiha Gökçen costs the same fixed per-vehicle fare as the arrival transfer. Select your district as pickup and SAW as destination, for example Fatih to SAW. Send the departure flight, time and hotel address; the team confirms pickup using the road and airport-arrival allowance.
Your hotel pickup includes 20 free minutes from the confirmed time. Be ready at the entrance or the accessible point named in the confirmation. Use Return for two journeys at the same airports. If your arrival and departure airports differ, send two one-way requests.
How does your transfer request become a confirmed booking?
Your SAW transfer is confirmed by the reservation team, not by the website form.
Send your transfer request. Add route, date, time, vehicle, flight number, hotel address, every passenger's full passport name and reachable contact details. Check passengers and bags; save your request reference.
We watch your flight. The team confirms availability and the booking separately, then emails a voucher. Your driver's name, photo and phone number follow the day before.
Look for your name. Meet at SAW area 10 on the arrivals forecourt as confirmed. Your driver helps with your bags. Contact the team if your flight or airport changes.
How do you pay, and can you change or cancel?
You pay nothing on the website: pay the driver in the vehicle by card or cash in EUR, TRY or USD. Tips are not required.
Cancellation received at least 24 hours before confirmed pickup is free. Date, time or address changes requested at least 24 hours ahead have no change fee; later changes depend on availability. Route or vehicle changes may alter the fare. Later cancellation or no-show may be charged the full fare. Read Terms & cancellation. Request at least 24 hours ahead where possible; for last-minute travel, message us on WhatsApp.
Flying on from Istanbul Airport?
If your next flight leaves from Istanbul Airport, you need a separate airport-to-airport road transfer. Send both flights and allow for the whole connection. Sabiha Gökçen to Istanbul Airport transfer explains the route and its separate fare.
Would the metro, airport bus or a taxi suit you better?
If you travel light, public transport, an airport bus or a taxi can also take you into the city. Compare metro, bus and taxi from Sabiha Gökçen on DoInIstanbul, our sister site. Landing at IST instead? See Istanbul Airport transfer.
