TL;DR
Havaist buses from Istanbul Airport (IST) serve the Sultanahmet area again, but they no longer stop at Sultanahmet Square; use the current stop shown on the Havaist map. According to the operator’s website, there is no matching route from Sabiha Gökçen Airport.
For travel from Istanbul Airport (IST) to Sultanahmet, check the stop on the Havaist map: the route has resumed, but passengers are dropped at a new location rather than at Sultanahmet Square.
Large buses are currently used on the Sultanahmet service. Previously, smaller vehicles could get closer to the square, while passengers on larger buses had to walk from a bus stop; since the stop was moved, smaller buses have not been seen on the route.
Do not expect Havaist to take you directly to Sultanahmet Square: regardless of bus size, drop-off is at the location shown on the operator’s map.
