Turkey acts as a bridge between continents by connecting Europe and Asia. With the new airport built in Istanbul, it has strengthened this connection and has become a city with direct flights to many parts of the world. Modern airports are actively functioning in more than 60 cities in Turkey, which has 81 cities with rich intercity transportation. In addition, thanks to its railways, high-speed trains and buses, it offers many alternatives for intercity travel at affordable prices.
In addition to all these, it serves millions of passengers every day with its developing transportation infrastructure networks that offer cheapness and multiple alternatives in urban transportation. These transportation networks vary from city to city, such as metro, bus, tram, ferry, minibus and taxi. The variety of means of transportation offers users alternative routes and low-cost transportation opportunities.
The Turkish government offers students discounted ticket pricing. The discounted ticket prices are valid for city public transportation and intercity trains. You can also minimize transportation costs by purchasing a monthly pass (subscription). You can also take a taxi or use a bicycle for short distances. The monthly fee for public transportation varies between 5-7 dollars.
