Can somebody tell me what's the distance between Ataturk and Sabiha airport and what's the best way to get to from one airport to the other cos I land at sabiha and my connecting flight is from Ataturk airport? Is there a metro or a bus service between these tow airports?
Also: What's the alternative way to travel to Bucharest from Istanbul? Trains etc? and how long will it take?
Thank you for your help!

Take the city bus to take you Taksim area frm Sabiha Gokcen airport. Take another bus in Taksim to take you to the Ataturk airport.
The distance between two airports is aprrox. 65 km. and you'll have get to European side from Asian side all along TEM motorway. That would take you at least 2 hours.
So please out to set 4 hours minimum time to make your transfers in Istanbul.
Taxis are also available from one airport to another and they'd charge you like USD 70 or so

There are no direct commute provider between the two airports yet amenities to and from Kozyatagi ( a region in between) . there's a provider at 4:00 o'clock from Atatürk to Kozyatagi which will take probable 40 5 minutes. the obtainable undesirable information is that the subsequent provider from Kozyatagi to observed is at 8:30, to take yet another 40-40 5 minutes. The commute amenities fee TL 10 each and each.

Bucharest to Istanbul is easy and cheap by bus. 12 hours, and 70-80 $ was last year a return ticket. Train takes longer but you can sleep better during the night. 18 hours *** I remember. Maybe 100$ return ticket. The tram from Railway station takes you directly to the bus ticketing office. ortadogu is one company but there are at least 2 in that place which is somewhere near the UNIVERSITY , on the other side of the main road.

I contacted Havas, a company who offers transportation to the airport. When they answer me about connections between Sabiha Gokcen and Ataturk I will pass it on to you.
I researched the train from Istanbul to Bucharest and here is what I found, there is a train daily from Sirkeci train station in Istanbul to Bucharest it takes 17 hours and is 35.40 Euros
Here is the link: http://www.letsgoistanbul.com/tren.htm
Let's see what Havas says, if they don' offer anything I suggest a cab, it will cost an arm and a leg but you will get there worry free.
EDIT: Havas contacted me with a NOVEL about their business. Shortly, there is a bus from Sabiha Gokcen Airport to the City Center called TAKSIM. In TAKSIM you will have to wait for the next HAVAS bus to take you to Ataturk Airport. The Havas driver will speak a little English so if you need to you will be able to ask him questions. Have a good trip.

Here's something about traveling from Istanbul to Bucharest:
There is one daily train (the Bosphorus Express) leaving at 10 PM from Istanbul and getting to Bucharest the next afternoon around 4.30 PM. It costs at least 50 euros ( 35 euros train + 15 euros sleeper).
A much better option are buses, they take about 10 hours to get to Bucharest and cost about 30 - 45 euros.

Take a taxi to Bostanci from Sabiha. Tell him he wants to take you to the so called sea-bus. The sea bus will transfer you to Bakirköy. You take a taxi from Bakirköy to the Atatürk-Airport.
