It is without a doubt one of the most convenient ways to travel between Izmir Airport and downtown, not only in terms of efficiency, as well as regarding its price.
From Izmir Airport you get easily to Konak Station, which is the main subway station in downtown. To do this, you can take either North and South line, since both stop at Izmir Airport.
Also, if you wish to transfer to any other location within the city, there are a couple of transfer stations, Halkapinar and Alsancak.
