TL;DR
For Şişli, the most practical options are usually Havabus to Taksim and then the M2 metro to Şişli, or a Marmaray + metro combination via Yenikapı or Ayrılık Çeşmesi. If you're coming from the T1 tram corridor, a common airport route is T1 to Sirkeci, Marmaray B1 to Ayrılık Çeşmesi, then M4 to Sabiha Gökçen.
If you're heading to the airport from the Old City or anywhere along the T1 tram, a practical route is T1 to Sirkeci, then Marmaray B1 to Ayrılık Çeşmesi, and a transfer there to the M4 metro toward Sabiha Gökçen.
One of the easiest ways from the airport to Şişli is to take Havabus to Taksim, then transfer to the M2 metro for the final ride to a station in the Şişli area.
A rail-based alternative from the airport is to take the metro to Marmaray, continue to Yenikapı, and then switch again to the metro toward Şişli. This can be better if you want to avoid road traffic.
If your accommodation is near the Şişli metro station, the exact ferry pier on the European side is less important, since you can continue by metro afterward to reach Şişli.
