For those who prioritize maintaining luxurious lifestyle standards during their travels, we offer a special terminal experience at Istanbul Airport, reminiscent of a 7-star hotel.
From tasting menus prepared by Michelin-starred chefs to SPA & Wellness experiences, from the Wine & Cigar experience lounge to apron transfers in Mercedes Maybach, every detail has been meticulously crafted and presented to our guests with the elegance of a unique Turkish carpet.
Our dedicated terminal, used by arriving, departing, and transit passengers, offers a limited selection of select travelers throughout the day. For a more secluded and luxurious experience, you can choose from our private suites, which require an additional reservation. Of course, a butler will be on duty 24 hours a day to attend to your needs.
Landing, leaving or connecting — pick your journey to see every step, what's included and how to book.
From the aircraft door to your car, without entering the main terminal.

Connect between flights in privacy, away from the crowds.
Istanbul Airport's private terminal is a standalone building away from the busy main terminal, with its own security, passport control and lounges. You never enter public check-in or security lines — and the whole process takes around 15 minutes.
It serves private jet passengers and VIP guests on scheduled flights alike, so you can travel on a commercial flight and still feel private.
Every guest enjoys the same private experience, whichever journey they choose.
Your luxury experience assistant welcomes you on arrival / departure and stays with you from the first step to the last. Every detail is handled with the grace of a true red carpet treatment.
Skip the buses and jet bridges. A chauffeured Mercedes Maybach takes you across the apron directly to the aircraft door, or collects you from it on arrival.
Border control comes to you. A dedicated passport officer completes your formalities on site, with no public queues and no waiting.
Enjoy premium catering, snacks and beverages throughout your stay. Tasting menus prepared by Michelin-starred chefs are available for those who want a true gourmet moment before departure.
A standalone terminal with its own security, passport control and lounges, completely separate from the main terminal. Relax in a calm, discreet space while check-in, security and passport control take only around 5 minutes.
Unwind in a dedicated lounge with a curated selection of fine wines and premium cigars. It is the perfect way to begin or end a journey in true style.
For complete seclusion, reserve a private suite for your own exclusive use (additional reservation required). A butler is on duty 24 hours a day to attend to your every need.
Refresh before or after your flight with SPA and wellness treatments inside the terminal. Arrive rested, leave renewed.
