Transfer at Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen Airport

The airport has one large terminal, which is relatively uncluttered. However, large crowds are to be expected at certain times of the day.
Especially for early morning departures, we recommend being at the airport at least 2.5 hours before departure.

The terminal is divided into a domestic section, where only flights within Turkey are handled, and an international section. Each section has a separate security checkpoint.
In the case of the international area, security is immediately followed by passport control.
Transfer between flights
Sabiha Gökcen Airport is a frequent transfer point between Europe and the Middle East. The terminal is adapted for passengers in transit and if you have a guaranteed airline connection, you do not have to leave the transit area.
You always go through security when you transfer.
If you are transferring from an international to a domestic flight, you will also go through passport control.

I don't understand. I don't mean to offend you, but if you learn to search for information efficiently (e.g. mzv.gov.cz), you can often find an answer faster than waiting for someone to respond to your query. Especially in the case of visa-free Turkey.
I have a stopover in SAW, do I need a transit visa?

If you're not leaving the transit area, then you don't need to.
SAW - VIE (13:30) without checked baggage. Is there a rush at the airport around noon with regard to passport/security control? Any recommended time of arrival at the airport? Thank you.
