The Sabiha Gökçen to Kartepe transfer is a private, door to door service with no changes along the way.

Drivers speak English, and service runs 24 hours a day.
Distance, duration and traffic windows for Sabiha Gökçen to Kartepe
The distance from Sabiha Gökçen Airport to Kartepe Ski Resort is 108.7 km, and the drive takes about 96 minutes. That duration is a dry road average; in snowy weather mountain roads may need chains and the trip can take longer.
Sabiha Gökçen sits in Pendik on the Asian side of Istanbul, so the route to Kartepe does not cross a Bosphorus bridge, which makes the Asian-side airport closer to Kartepe than Istanbul Airport. Turkish winter tyre rules apply to intercity commercial passenger vehicles from 15 November to 15 April, and GET4S vehicles run on winter tyres throughout that period.
What the price includes and which vehicle you get
The Sabiha Gökçen Kartepe transfer starts at 117 EUR per vehicle, not per person, and the fixed price covers motorway and toll fees, luggage and the driver's waiting time. The base class is a 6 seat Mercedes Vito, and ski and snowboard bags fit in its boot: up to 4 people with ski bags travel comfortably in one Vito, while larger groups are better served by a minivan. There is no extra charge for equipment.
Payment can be made online by card in advance or in cash to the driver in EUR, USD, GBP or TL. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before pickup, a 20 percent night rate applies to pickups between 22:00 and 06:00, and return bookings get a 5 percent discount. Child seats are free on request, and GET4S is a TÜRSAB licensed travel agency (licence no 14225).
Kartepe Ski Resort: what to expect at the destination
Kartepe Ski Resort sits at the top of the Samanlı Mountains in Kocaeli's Kartepe district, overlooking Lake Sapanca and the Gulf of İzmit, and it is the closest ski resort to Istanbul. Its altitude is lower than Uludağ and Kartalkaya, so in years with little snow the slopes may open later; check the snow conditions before you travel. The opening and closing dates of the ski season change every year with the snow, and the busiest periods are the mid term school holiday and weekends.
Kartepe, Maşukiye and Sapanca lie close to each other, and transfers to Sapanca hotels can be booked as a separate route on the site. Beyond the private transfer, a taxi is the alternative for this trip; GET4S does not publish public transport timetables or taxi fares here. What the private transfer offers is a direct, door to door ride with no transfers along the way.
