One main terminal with seven concourses

Istanbul New Airport is located northwest of Istanbul, Turkey in the district of Arnavutköy. The airport officially opened on October 29th, 2018 on the Republic Day of Turkey, but only became fully operational on April 6th, 2019. With more than 300 domestic and international flight destinations, the airport will serve as one of the most important hubs in the world thanks to its strategic geographical location between Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.

Following the opening of Istanbul New Airport, the city's current airport, Istanbul Atatürk Airport, ceased all scheduled passenger traffic and will be converted into a public park.
