Istanbul Atatürk Airport

Atatürk Airport is a general aviation and cargo airport in Istanbul. It used to be an intercontinental passenger hub and closed to commercial passenger flights on 6 April 2019 when all flights were transferred to the new Istanbul Airport. Since then, the airport is open only for cargo, maintenance, general aviation, air taxis, business flights and state and diplomatic aircraft, while commercial passenger flights are all handled at the newly built Istanbul Airport.
First opened in 1912 as a military airfield, it is located on the European side of the city, 24 km west of the city centre. The airport was originally named Yeşilköy Airport. In the 1980s, it was renamed Atatürk International Airport in honour of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder and first president of the Republic of Turkey. It served more than 60 million passengers in 2015, making it the 11th-busiest airport in the world in terms of total passenger traffic and the 10th-busiest in the world in terms of international passenger traffic. In 2017, it was Europe's 5th-busiest airport after London Heathrow, Paris Charles de Gaulle, Frankfurt Airport and Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, having fallen from third place after a decline in passengers due to security fears.
