Just discovered the Izmir Ferry system and it's a total game changer. I was stuck on the Konak-Karsiyaka road for an hour the other day, nearly missed my appointment. Then a friend told me to take the ferry from Konak to Karsiyaka – took 20 minutes and I got to enjoy the bay view. Best part: the ferry accepts Izmirim Card, same as buses. Now I use it every day for my commute. Btw, does anyone know if there's a ferry to Bostanli from Alsancak? I saw some docks but wasn't sure. Also, the bus that goes to the airport – is the 202 the best option? I took it once and it took forever.
