How to get from Fatih to SAW airport safely, efficiently, and cheaply
 

My friend and I are staying in Fatih, and she and I are leaving Istanbul from different airports. I'm a bit nervous about the solo-travel at that point. I need to figure out the best way to get to SAW, and I am a bit clueless how to do this. I do have an evening flight, so I'll leave plenty of time, but I want to make sure I avoid certain spots (ie Taksim) to accomplish this task. What are my options? Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!!

Thanks!

Please ask your hotel or hosts for the best route at the time of travel.

Thanks otherchelebi! I did just that, and they have their own service for 55 euros, but also said havatas or a taxi. They mentioned that Havatas includes a taxi to Taksim, and from taksim, I'd use the shuttle to the airport--I'm thinking I should stay away from that however. In an older forum, someone mentioned this airport shuttle as well: http://www.sabihagokcenairportshuttle.com not sure if it's reputable or not.

Havatas does not use Taksim at this time due to the protests but has moved its stop to Kasimpasa.

I do not know that specific transfer company but shuttles are usually dependable although not very cheap.

Check for IDO Seabus from Yenikapi to Bostanci schedule and consider a taxi from there if you do not have more than one piece of luggage. This will be the fastest route.

Fatih - Yenikapi : Taxi
Yenikapi - Bostanci : IDO sea bus
Bostanci - SAW : Taxi

thank you very much!
