About Çanakkale Airport
Çanakkale Airport (CKZ) is a small regional airport 3.4 km from the city center with a single scheduled route to Ankara (ESB); visitors from Istanbul typically arrive via a ~4-hour road VIP transfer over the 1915 Çanakkale Bridge instead.
Çanakkale Airport (CKZ) sits just 3-4 km from the city center and is the province's only active civil airport. Its sole scheduled route connects to Ankara Esenboğa (ESB) via AJet — there is no direct flight from Istanbul's airports (IST/SAW), which is why most visitors arriving in Istanbul choose a ~4-hour road VIP transfer across the 1915 Çanakkale Bridge instead.
