İBB's tariff says TRY 420; Havaist charges TRY 470. If you are charged 470, that is the operator's price, not the tariff's — both figures are shown here so you know which to expect.

The slowest Havaist line into town: 110 minutes on the operator's own timetable, against 90 to Taksim.

Nothing between 23:45 and 05:00. At night the Havaist Aksaray coach, four T1 tram stops away, runs through — but the tram stops at midnight too.

It stops at Eminönü and Şişhane on the way, which may be nearer your hotel than Çatladıkapı.

Every 75 minutes around the clock from the airport — 00:00, 01:15, 02:30, 03:45, 05:15, 06:30 and so on to 22:45 — which makes it the most regular night service the airport has.

Two hours on the operator's own timetable, and 75 km; traffic on the bridge decides the rest.

A taxi to the Asian side pays the bridge or tunnel toll on top of the meter, and through the Eurasia Tunnel the passenger pays the taxi's return toll too.
