Unrivaled Global Network: Boasting an extensive network of over 330 destinations—309 of which are served by non-stop flights—iGA Istanbul Airport provides a level of global access and infrastructure that remains unmatched by any other hub. This massive operation is supported by 116 airline operators, ensuring seamless travel across continents.
Award-Winning Passenger Experience: Beyond its scale, iGA is defined by excellence. It is one of only six airports worldwide to hold the prestigious ACI Level 5 Customer Experience accreditation. These standards have earned it consistent global recognition, including being named "Best Airport in the World" by Conde Nast Traveler (2022, 2024, and 2025) and "Best International Airport" by Travel + Leisure. The world-class iGA Lounge further elevates this journey, offering gourmet dining and premium relaxation spaces.
Innovation and Operational Excellence: As the first airport in Europe to implement Triple Runway Operations, iGA has increased its capacity to 148 aircraft movements per hour. This efficiency is mirrored in its digital-first strategy: utilizing AI chatbots, RFID baggage tracking, and biometric boarding systems that have successfully reduced boarding times by 30%.
A Pioneer in Sustainability: With a steadfast commitment to reach Net Zero by 2050, iGA is leading the aviation industry's green transition. A landmark €212m investment in the Eskişehir Solar Power Plant will make iGA the first global hub to power its entire terminal via solar energy. Furthermore, in collaboration with TÜBİTAK, the airport has developed a comprehensive Climate Adaptation Plan to ensure long-term operational resilience.
