The 49 km journey between Fatih and Istanbul Airport (IST) takes about 61 minutes on average.

About Fatih

Fatih covers Istanbul's historic peninsula, home to UNESCO World Heritage sites such as Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapı Palace and the Grand Bazaar. This is the city's busiest tourist district, with numerous boutique hotels; due to the narrow historic streets, drop-off for some addresses may be at the nearest suitable point.
