What Istanbul Airport to Şişli costs

- Eco Van, up to six people: €50.
- Mercedes Vito: €60.
- Mercedes V-Class: €65.
- Mercedes Sprinter, up to 16 people: €80.
Istanbul Airport charges one fare for its own shore, so Şişli is €50 like any other European-side district. The other airport is across the Bosphorus and €70 from Şişli. If you book the ride into Şişli both ways, the return costs 2 × €50, so €100 in the Eco Van. No night surcharge.
