Practical tips for SAW.
Asian-side location
SAW is on the Asian side of the Bosporus. Travel to European-side hotels can take 60-90 minutes via the second Bosporus bridge in normal traffic.
Low-cost terminal flow
Pegasus dominates the airport, so peak loads cluster around their wave departures and arrivals. Build buffer time around early morning and late evening peaks.
Single arrivals exit
Domestic and international arrivals merge before the meeting hall, which keeps wayfinding simple compared to multi-terminal hubs.
