Istanbul Airport, also known as Istanbul New Airport, is an international airport located in Istanbul, Turkey. It is the largest airport in Turkey and one of the largest airports in the world. The construction of the airport began in 2015, and it was officially opened on October 29, 2018.
Istanbul Airport was built to replace the Atatürk Airport, which was the previous main international airport serving Istanbul. The new airport was constructed on the European side of Istanbul, near the Black Sea coast, in the Arnavutköy district.
The airport was designed to handle a high volume of passengers and aircraft, with the capacity to serve over 200 million passengers annually once all phases of construction are completed. It features a large main terminal building, multiple concourses, and extensive runway and taxiway infrastructure. The airport has been developed as a major global aviation hub, connecting Europe, Asia, and other regions.
Istanbul Airport is operated by İGA (Istanbul Grand Airport), a consortium of Turkish companies. It serves as the primary hub for Turkish Airlines, the national flag carrier of Turkey, and many other domestic and international airlines operate flights from the airport. The airport offers a wide range of amenities and services, including shops, restaurants, lounges, hotels, and transportation options.
With its strategic location and modern facilities, Istanbul Airport aims to position Istanbul as a key aviation hub and enhance Turkey's role as a global transit point for air travel.
