Car Hire Antalya Airport

Antalya Airport Mini Guide

The Airport in Brief
Antalya Airport is one of the busiest airports in Turkey with 22m passengers passing through its gates last year. The airport is situated 8 miles north east of the city which is easily reached by road. The airport has two international and one domestic terminal, all with plentiful parking divided into long stay, short stay and disabled parking.

How do I Get There?
As one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Mediterranean, Antalya has over a hundred airlines that fly there. Most are seasonal chartered and in winter, when only the scheduled airlines fly, the airport seems quite empty.

How to Get to Your Destination When you Land
There are no trains from the airport but there are plentiful buses including an airport shuttle bus that runs between the three terminals and the city centre of Antalya before heading on to the city bus station for long distance coaches along the coast. Several local buses run to destinations in Antalya and the outlying districts. Check at the airport information desk for schedules and routes. Taxis operate from the airport but you must fix the price before the taxi sets off or leave yourself open to ramped up rates upon arrival at your destination.

If you are collecting a hire car from the airport, the car hire companies’ desks are found in the public area of the arrivals hall of the international and domestic terminals. At busy times, notably in the peak summer season, you should pre-book your vehicle and send a member of your party through to begin queuing to avoid a lengthy wait at the desks. Leaving the airport, the access road joins the main coastal highway before reaching the outer ring road of the city. From here, follow the signs to your destination resort.

Public Information
There’s an airport information desk in the departures area opposite the security x-ray machine and in arrivals by belt 1 of the international terminal and belts 3 and 4 of the domestic terminal. Here, aspects of your onward travel can be dealt with as well as general enquiries about the airport’s procedures.
