Istanbul Atatürk Airport (IATA: IST, ICAO: LTBA) (Template:Lang-tr) is the main international airport serving Istanbul, Turkey (followed by Sabiha Gökçen International Airport). Opened in 1924 and located in Yeşilköy, on the European side of the city, it is 24 km (15 mi) west^[1] of the city centre. In 1980, the airport was renamed to Atatürk International Airport in honor of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder and the first president of the Republic of Turkey. With total passenger traffic of more than 37.3 millions for the year 2011, it was the 30th busiest airport in the world in terms of total passenger traffic and the 17th busiest in the world in terms of international passenger traffic, ranking just below Rome-Fiumicino Airport. It was Europe's 8th busiest airport in 2011, just below Munich and Rome. For the period of April 2011 to April 2012, IST's rankings improved to 26th for total passenger traffic and 15th for international passenger traffic.^[2]

Turkish Chamber of Civil Engineers lists Atatürk International Airport as one of the fifty civil engineering feats in Turkey, a list of remarkable engineering projects realized in the first 50 years of the chamber.^[3]

Access

There are several ways to travel between Atatürk International Airport and the city center.

Light Rail Service : Light rail service exists between Aksaray and Atatürk International Airport. The line goes through some major parts of the European side of the city; including the intercity bus terminal. The LRT takes the passengers to Aksaray in 30–35 minutes.^[4] The approximate cost is 0.75 euros one-way.
Airport Shuttle Service : The shuttle services are operated by Havataş, which is one of the major ground handling companies within Turkey. The buses run half-hourly to Bakırköy, Yenikapı, Aksaray, Taksim Square. Also, there is a fast ferry terminal in Bakırköy which connects the terminal to Bostancı and Kadıköy. Havaş buses run between the airport and the fast ferry terminal according to the departures and arrivals of the ferries.^[5]
Municipality Bus : Municipality buses also run to Taksim, Etiler and Kozyatağı. This is a slower but much cheaper alternative than Havataş.^[6]
Car : The airport is accessible through the coastal road, D-100 international road and TEM (Trans-European Motorway).

Terminals

Atatürk airport has four terminals:

Terminal 1, for domestic flights
Terminal 2, for international flights
Terminal 3, for cargo flights
General Aviation Terminal

Inaugurated in 2000, the new international terminal is an efficient and modern terminal. After the new terminal opened, domestic flights were moved to the old international terminal. Despite its 1960s design, this new domestic terminal can handle more passengers than the more modern but smaller previous domestic terminal.

The airport terminals have been operated by TAV (Tepe-Akfen-Ventures) since January 2000. TAV has invested US$600 million since 1998. In 2005 TAV won the concession agreement to operate Atatürk for 15.5 years at a record breaking amount of $4 billion, which also represents the highest figure for such a privatization project in Turkey, Eastern Europe, Middle East, Commonwealth of Independent States and North Africa.

TAV (Tepe-Akfen-Ventures) started its construction at the airport for new boarding gates at international terminal as well as building a new air traffic control tower. Unused facility buildings are demolished and 3 new boarding bridges are being built. When the new tower is completed, the old one will be demolished. When the international terminal is expanded, some of the jet ways will be left to the domestics terminal which are on the west of the international terminal, connected to it.

Runways

There is a plan to build another runway parallel to runway 05/23, so when the original runway undergoes repairs, this runway will be able to handle aircraft movements without any interruption to service. But in order to work on this project, the land required to build the new runway on belongs to the military, and this is being negotiated between the military and the airport authorities. Also, there are plans to expand the length of runway 05/23, this will allow the runway to be able to handle larger aircraft, as most airlines which serve Istanbul have already begun to use larger aircraft.^[7] Wind direction is mainly from northeast and some from southwest.^[8]

Traffic

Atatürk Airport still faces capacity issues; it ranks somewhere between 30th and 40th in the world by both cargo and passenger traffic, handling over 947,000 tonnes of load (cargo, freight and mail) and over 32.1 million passengers in the year 2010. The total number of passengers has doubled in the past five years, and domestic traffic has almost quadrupled (see statistics section below). Its rated capacity of 14 million international passengers per year and 10 million domestic passengers per year was barely sufficient for the demand in 2007 and 2008. The Istanbul greater metropolitan area is expected/projected to have a demand of 35 million international passengers and 25 million domestic passengers annually by the year 2015.^{[citation needed]} However, introduction of the Ankara-Istanbul high-speed railway in 2013^[19] may shift rail passenger market share from 10% to 78%.^[20] Completion of the construction of the intercity highways linking Istanbul to other cities (to Bursa, İzmir, Antalya and the Black Sea Speedway) may also decrease airport demand.^{[citation needed]}

Atatürk shares traffic with Sabiha Gökçen International Airport, which is on the Anatolian (Asian) side of Istanbul, which had annual passenger traffic of just 11.1 million in 2010. The two airports both provide domestic and international service to the Istanbul area.

A third big airport is being planned in order to meet Istanbul's growing domestic and international air traffic demand as a source, destination and transit point. A site in the European part on the coast of the Black Sea has already been chosen and the bidding for construction will start soon.^[21]^[22]^[23]^[24] Atatürk International Airport will continue operations in a lower capacity when the third airport enters into service.^[25]

IST ranked 17th in ACI statistics at the end of 2011 in terms of international traffic with almost 24 Million international passengers. It ranked 29th in the world in terms of total passenger traffic with over 37.4 Million passengers in 2011. Its total traffic within the last decade more than tripled, and its international traffic quadrupled. If the current passenger growth maintains itself, IST is expected to become one of the 25 busiest airports in the world in terms of total passenger traffic and top 15 in terms of international traffic by the end of year 2012.^[26]^[27]
