About this transfer
Landing on the Asian side and heading toward the business district of Kavacık keeps you on the same side of the city. Booking our private Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Kavacık transfer means we meet you right outside arrivals with a name board and take your bags. The drive covers 45 km, heading northwest from the terminal.
We take the Kuzey Marmara Otoyolu directly out of the airport area. On a clear run, our driver brings you straight to the address in 38 minutes. During the morning peak, heavy commuter flow stretches that same route to 52 minutes.
Public transit on this corridor requires changing vehicles along the way. You take the M4 subway from the terminal for twenty-one stops to Ayrılık Çeşmesi, then switch to the 15F bus for another thirty-one stops to Dolaybağı. That journey involves walking between platforms and takes 108 minutes from start to finish.
Public transit charges a separate fare per passenger, which adds up as your party grows. Our private service is booked per vehicle rather than per seat, so the cost splits among everyone travelling together. We track your flight for delays, wait for you if you are held up, and drive your group straight to the door.
