Practical information about Antalya Airport

💡 In short:

• Belek is 33 km from the airport, and the drive takes 30 minutes (route on the map).
• Cheap: bus 600 to the bus station and a midibus to Belek. Predictable: a private transfer with a fixed price.
• Fares and schedules: as of 09/2026, verified on the Antalya Airport website and with the municipal carrier.

Antalya Airport (AYT) is located northeast of the city center, and you can reach it by car in about 20 minutes along the D400 highway (as of 09/2026, airport transport page). The terminals are connected by a free shuttle that runs every 20 minutes and stops at the departure exits. If you are flying through Terminal 2, allow extra time for moving between terminals.

How much time to allow for the trip

Leave your hotel at least 3 to 3.5 hours before departure: check-in, security screening, and passport control add to the 30-minute drive. Domestic flights usually require arriving at the terminal 1.5 hours before departure, international flights 2.5 hours, and check the exact requirements with your airline and in the passenger guide.

Money and hotel address: what to prepare in advance

Take some cash in lira at the airport: ATMs and exchange offices are located in both the arrivals and departures halls. At resort cafes and shops you can pay by card, but a midibus driver or taxi driver may not have enough change, so keep small bills handy.

There are many hotels with similar names in Belek and around Antalya, so save the address and phone number in advance. It is easier for a driver to enter them into a navigator than to search for the hotel by name. A screenshot of your booking will help if the map does not load while roaming.

How to get from Antalya Airport to Belek

There is no direct bus from the terminal to Belek. All budget routes go through central Antalya or through the Otogar bus station, so the savings come at the cost of transfers. With suitcases, children, and an evening arrival, this route is not worth choosing.

Option 1: bus 600, Antray tram, and Havaş shuttle

The cheapest route looks like this: get to the city center or the bus station, then transfer to a midibus to Belek that departs every 30 minutes. With a transfer, you will spend more time on the road than in a taxi and will have to keep an eye on your luggage at every stop.

The Antray tram connects the airport with the center on the Airport Line; the ticket is loaded onto an Antkart card (operator Antalya Ulaşım). The line runs through the center to Fatih station, and from there you still need to get to the bus station or find a midibus to Belek.

Bus 600: route and stops

Bus 600 runs from the airport to the Otogar bus station every 30 minutes; the trip takes 45 to 60 minutes including traffic in the center (schedule at Antalya Ulaşım). The route passes TEDAŞ, Topçular, Meydan, Mevlana, Markantalya, 100. Yıl, the city hospital, Meltem, Akdeniz University, and Erasta Shopping Mall. At the bus station, you transfer to a midibus to Belek.

Havaş shuttle to the center and bus station

The Havaş shuttle departs once an hour during the daytime from the domestic terminal exit and goes to the city center and the bus station. Tickets are sold on site, and the schedule and prices are updated on the carrier's website. With luggage, the bus is more convenient than the tram, but the infrequent schedule forces you to adapt: there are fewer departures toward evening, and you may miss the last one.

Option 2: taxi from the terminal

Taxi stands are located in front of the exits of all terminals, a board with current fares is posted nearby, and you can order a car in advance on the airport taxi website. The meter includes a base fare and per-kilometer charge: the minimum trip in 2026 costs about 200 lira (as of 09/2026, Antalya Kent Haber), and the per-kilometer rate is reviewed by UKOME every year.

Over a distance of 33 km, the meter makes this the most expensive option on the list. For one or two passengers, it loses to a fixed-price transfer, but the car is waiting at the exit and you do not need to wait. At night, a taxi remains the only option if you have not booked a transfer in advance.

Option 3: private transfer with a fixed price

A private transfer covers the weak points of the first two options. The driver meets you in the arrivals hall with a sign, helps with your luggage, and takes you to the hotel entrance. The price is fixed at booking, so traffic and waiting do not add extra charges, and the car waits for you, not the other way around.

• Who it's for: families with children, groups, late arrivals, and trips with a lot of luggage.

• Not for: if you are traveling alone with a backpack and saving every lira, bus 600 will cost less.

What to check before booking: request a child seat separately, clarify the waiting policy for flight delays, and provide the full hotel name. See cars and prices on Kiwitaxi.

Car rental at the airport

Rental companies operate directly in the airport terminals, with counters located next to the arrivals areas (as of 09/2026, airport car rental information). A car is useful if you want to head to the beaches and nearby towns on your own schedule rather than following midibus timetables.

Factor in hotel parking and the credit card deposit, which is refunded after the trip. Full insurance eliminates most disputes on the spot, and book the car in advance: during high season, the choice of models is smaller.

⁉️🤔 Frequently asked questions

How many kilometers is it from Antalya Airport to Belek?

The distance is about 33 km via the D400 highway (route map). The road is smooth, with no hairpin turns, and the trip with luggage is easy.

How long does the trip from the airport to Belek take?

Taxis and private transfers get there in 30 minutes if there is no traffic jam leaving Antalya. Bus 600 takes 45-60 minutes to the bus station (bus 600 schedule), then you add the midibus. In total, the budget route takes at least an hour and a half, so with an evening flight you will arrive at the hotel late.

Which option is the most convenient?

A private transfer. The driver waits for you in the arrivals hall, helps with your suitcases, and takes you directly to the hotel, and the price is known in advance and does not change due to traffic. For a family with children, this is calmer than switching between buses with luggage.

How much does a taxi from the airport to Belek cost?

Taxis run on the meter: a base fare plus kilometers. The minimum trip in 2026 costs about 200 lira (as of 09/2026, UKOME fare in Antalya), and for 33 km the total increases several times over. Check the fare against the board at the taxi stand or confirm it on the airport taxi website.

What if my flight is delayed?

Private transfers track the flight number, so the driver arrives at the actual landing time, not the original one. Check the free waiting policy when booking, as it varies by carrier. If you take a taxi from the stand, the delay does not affect you, but the line during high season will add time.

In short: what to book

If you're traveling with family or a group, take a private transfer: the price is known in advance, the driver waits in the arrivals hall, and the trip takes 30 minutes. If budget matters more than comfort, bus 600 and the midibus will get you there for minimal money. For trips around the region, compare car rental options.
