Prices and Payment
### How much does an Antalya airport transfer cost?
Private transfer prices from Antalya Airport are fixed: €50 sedan to Konyaaltı (15 km), €55 to Lara (18 km), €80 to Belek (43 km), €100 to Side (65 km), €160 to Alanya (130 km), and €220 to Kaş (200 km). Minivan prices are approximately 30% higher per route. These prices cover 1–3 passengers (sedan) or 1–6 passengers (minivan) and include all tolls and meet-and-greet service.
### Is there a night surcharge for late arrivals?
Yes. Transfers between 23:00 and 06:00 (Turkish time, UTC+3) carry a 30% surcharge. A sedan to Belek costs €80 during the day and €104 at night. The surcharge applies automatically based on your scheduled arrival time and is shown clearly at the booking stage — there are no hidden fees.
### Can I pay in cash?
Yes. Cash is the default payment method. Accepted currencies: EUR (preferred), USD, and Turkish Lira (TRY). Pay the driver directly when you arrive at the vehicle. If you are arriving from Russia and carrying rubles, exchange to EUR at the currency office in the T2 arrivals hall before exiting — rubles are not accepted for the transfer.
### Do you accept credit cards? Which ones?
Most vehicles carry a SumUp or iZettle card reader that accepts Visa, Mastercard, and American Express contactless. Apple Pay and Google Pay work on these readers in most cases. Card payment is confirmed when you board — if the reader fails for any reason, cash (EUR) is the fallback. Prepayment online via Stripe is also available at the booking stage.
### Are prices fixed or can they change after booking?
Prices are fixed at the time of booking. Once you receive a confirmation, the price does not change regardless of traffic, route variations, or time of day (the night surcharge is applied at booking based on your scheduled arrival time, not recalculated at pickup). The only exception: if you significantly change the destination after booking, the price is adjusted to reflect the new route.
### Is there a charge for extra luggage?
No charge for standard luggage within vehicle capacity (2 large cases for sedan, 4 for minivan, 8 for minibus). Oversized items — golf bags (hard shell), bicycle boxes, wheelchair, ski equipment — count toward the luggage capacity. If you have more luggage than the vehicle category supports, book the next vehicle size up. There is no per-bag fee.
Booking and Finding Your Driver
### How do I find my driver at Antalya Airport?
Exit customs and baggage in Terminal 2, walk through the automatic sliding doors, and turn left. Private transfer drivers wait in the first zone on your left, inside the arrivals hall, before the official taxi rank outside. Each driver holds a printed white A4 sign with your name. The waiting area is clearly visible from 20 metres. If you cannot see your sign, connect to AYT-Free-Wifi and WhatsApp your driver — their number is in your confirmation.
### What happens if my flight is delayed?
Nothing you need to do. The booking system tracks your flight in real time using your flight number. If your flight is delayed 30 minutes, your driver waits. If it is delayed 3 hours, the driver's dispatch time is automatically recalculated so they do not wait at the airport for hours. Delays of any length do not affect the confirmed price. If a delay shifts your arrival to after 23:00, the night surcharge may apply — you will be notified by WhatsApp if this changes your price.
### How far in advance should I book?
For routes to Lara, Konyaaltı, Belek, and City Center, booking 2 hours before your flight lands is enough. For Alanya, Side, Kemer, and Kaş, book at least 4 hours ahead. In July and August, book 24 hours in advance to guarantee your vehicle type — minivans are the first to sell out. For minibuses (7–12 pax), book 24–48 hours ahead year-round.
### Can I change or cancel my booking?
Yes. Changes and cancellations are free up to 24 hours before your scheduled pickup. Contact support by WhatsApp (+90 531 597 22 34) or email. Within 24 hours, changes are accepted subject to availability and a 50% cancellation fee applies if you cancel entirely. Flight delays and cancellations outside your control are treated sympathetically — contact support as soon as you know.
### What if I can't find my driver?
First: stay inside the arrivals hall (do not exit to the taxi rank or car park). Connect to AYT-Free-Wifi and WhatsApp the driver's number (in your confirmation email). Response is typically under 2 minutes. Second option: WhatsApp the support line at +90 531 597 22 34. Third: call the number in your confirmation. Do not accept offers from unofficial drivers approaching you in the hall.
### Is there a free waiting time if I'm late clearing customs?
Yes. All bookings include 60 minutes of free waiting time from the scheduled landing time. This covers normal customs and baggage queues, even on busy summer days. If you have been waiting in a long customs queue and it has been over 60 minutes, your driver will still be there — they track flights and know when congestion at customs is causing delays. For waits beyond 90 minutes (rare), contact the driver directly.
Vehicles and Luggage
### What vehicles are available?
Four categories: sedan (Toyota Corolla / VW Passat, 1–3 pax, 2 large bags, from €55), minivan (Mercedes Vito / Ford Transit Custom, 1–6 pax, 4 large bags, from €70), VIP sedan (Mercedes E-Class / BMW 5 Series, 1–3 pax, from €90), and minibus (Mercedes Sprinter 9–12 seat, 7–12 pax, 6–8 large bags, from €130). Wheelchair-accessible vehicles are available on request.
### Will my golf bag fit in the car?
A hard-shell golf travel bag (standard 130 cm length) does not fit in a sedan alongside other luggage. Book a minivan (€105 to Belek) — it carries 2 golf bags plus 3 standard suitcases. Soft-sided travel bags may fit in a sedan if it is the only large item. For golf groups with 4+ bags, the Sprinter minibus has an underfloor hold.
### Can I bring a baby pushchair?
Yes. A folding pushchair (umbrella type or compact) fits in a sedan boot alongside one standard suitcase. A full-size travel system (e.g. Bugaboo, iCandy) requires a minivan — it sits flat in the cargo area. If you are unsure, book the minivan: it handles every pushchair type without issue.
### What's the maximum luggage for a sedan?
Two large suitcases (90L/28" hard shell, up to 23 kg each) in the boot, plus personal items (backpacks, laptop bags) on passenger seats or laps. A third large case can be carried on the passenger seat in exceptional cases, but this is the absolute limit and should be confirmed at booking. Do not assume the driver can accommodate extra bags without prior arrangement.
### Do minivans have enough space for 6 people with luggage?
Yes, if the luggage is within capacity. Six passengers each with a standard 23 kg suitcase is within the minivan's cargo capacity (4 large cases in the dedicated area + 2 medium bags in the rear cabin). If six passengers each have an additional carry-on bag, it may be tight. Six passengers with golf bags: book a minibus instead.
### Can I hire a minibus for a group?
Yes. Minibuses seat 7–12 passengers and carry 6–8 large suitcases. Price to Belek: €180; to Alanya: €320; to Side: €220. Book at least 24 hours in advance. For 13+ passengers, two vehicles are dispatched — contact support to arrange group pricing.
Special Requirements
### Is a baby/child seat available?
Yes, at no extra charge. Three types: infant seat (0–13 kg / birth to ~12 months), toddler seat (9–18 kg / 9 months to ~4 years), booster seat (15–36 kg / 3 years to ~11 years). Request the type and your child's age and weight in the comments at booking. Child seats must be confirmed at booking — not on the day of travel.
### Can I book a wheelchair-accessible vehicle?
Yes. Converted wheelchair-accessible vehicles (WAV) are available for passengers who need to remain in their wheelchair during the journey. These are not standard minivans — they have a ramp or lift and a wheelchair lock system. Request specifically at booking: add "wheelchair-accessible vehicle required — [manual/powered, dimensions if known]" in the comments. 24 hours notice is required; 48 hours preferred for powered chairs.
### Are Russian/German/Arabic-speaking drivers available?
Russian-speaking drivers: available for most routes with 12 hours notice. This is a priority feature given the large Russian tourist volume at Antalya Airport. German-speaking drivers: available for Belek, Lara, and city routes with 24 hours notice. Arabic: some drivers have conversational Arabic, particularly for Gulf market guests. Specify your language preference in the comments at booking.
### Do you do medical/hospital transfers?
Yes. Medical transfers to and from Antalya's major hospitals — Antalya Medical Park, Memorial Antalya, Anadolu Medical Center, and Antalya Training and Research Hospital — are available 24/7. Medical transfers can be booked for bed-to-bed transport, post-surgery discharge, or accompanying patients between facilities. A wheelchair-accessible or stretcher vehicle can be requested. Book via WhatsApp (+90 531 597 22 34) for medical transfers to confirm specific requirements.
### Can I book multiple transfers in advance?
Yes. You can book an outbound (airport to hotel) and return (hotel to airport) transfer at the same time using the "add return journey" option. For groups needing multiple vehicles across multiple dates (e.g. a golf group arriving across three days), contact support to arrange a group booking with a single confirmation and invoice.
### Is there a service for unaccompanied minors?
Unaccompanied minors (under 18 travelling without an adult guardian) can be accommodated with advance arrangement. The service includes driver verification at the terminal, a confirmation photo sent to the parent/guardian, and WhatsApp updates throughout the journey. This service requires at least 48 hours notice and must be confirmed via WhatsApp or email — it cannot be arranged through the standard booking form alone.
Routes and Timing
### How long does the transfer from Antalya Airport to Belek take?
Belek is 43 km from Antalya Airport, entirely via the D400 dual carriageway. Typical transfer time: 45 minutes. In July–August during the morning check-out rush (09:00–11:00 Saturdays), allow 60 minutes. Night transfers (23:00–06:00) typically take 35 minutes — the D400 is clear. Your driver departs based on your actual landing time, so they arrive at the hotel at the expected time regardless of when your flight lands.
### What is the fastest route to Lara/Kundu?
Lara is 18 km from Antalya Airport, typically 28 minutes via the D400 and the Lara coastal road. The route is entirely flat and dual carriageway. There is a short tunnel section near the Lara Beach strip — the toll is included in your transfer price. In peak season (July–August), the same journey takes 35–40 minutes during morning check-out traffic. Night transfers take approximately 20 minutes.
### Do you go to Kaş? How long does it take?
Yes. Kaş is 200 km from Antalya Airport — the longest standard route. Typical journey time: 2 hours 35 minutes (155 minutes). The route follows the D400 to Kemer (45 km, 50 minutes), then the coastal mountain road west through Finike and Demre. After Kemer, the road becomes winding single carriageway through the Taurus foothills — scenic, but speed drops to 50–60 km/h on some sections. Sedan price: €220; minivan: €280.
### Can I get a transfer to a cruise port?
Yes. The Antalya cruise port (Antalya Ticari Liman) is in the city center, approximately 13 km from the airport (22 minutes, ${city.s} sedan). Alanya also has a cruise ship anchorage point — 130 km from the airport, ${alanya.s} sedan. If your cruise ship docks at a non-standard location, provide the pier name or GPS coordinates in the booking comments.
### What time do most charter flights arrive at Antalya Airport?
The majority of European charter flights from the UK, Germany, Netherlands, and Poland arrive in two windows: morning arrivals (06:00–10:00) from overnight red-eye departures, and afternoon/evening arrivals (14:00–20:00) from morning departures. Russian charter flights from Moscow (SVO, DME), St Petersburg, and other cities concentrate in the 04:00–08:00 and 17:00–22:00 windows. If you arrive between 23:00 and 06:00, the 30% night surcharge applies.
### Is the road to Alanya safe at night?
Yes. The D400 between Antalya Airport and Alanya is a well-lit dual carriageway for the first 90 km. The remaining section through Mahmutlar to Alanya center is a wide regional road with standard lighting. Night driving on this route is routine — drivers make this run daily. Journey time at night is typically 75–80 minutes (vs 90 minutes in daytime traffic). Road conditions are safe year-round; winter rain occasionally causes short delays near Side but does not make the road dangerous.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cheapest way to get from Antalya Airport to Belek?
The cheapest private transfer to Belek is the sedan at €80. A shared shuttle service (if available) is cheaper per person but adds 45–90 minutes due to multiple hotel drop-offs. A licensed metered taxi costs approximately €70–90 depending on the meter. For a group of 3, the private sedan is already cheaper than 3 individual taxi fares.
Is the Antalya airport transfer service available 24 hours?
Yes. Transfers operate 24/7 every day of the year. Night transfers (23:00–06:00) carry a 30% surcharge. The driver pool is smaller between midnight and 05:00, so book at least 4 hours in advance for night arrivals. The support line (+90 531 597 22 34) operates 07:00–23:00 Turkish time; your driver's direct number is available 24/7 once the booking is confirmed.
How do I know the driver is legitimate and safe?
All AntalyaTransfers.co drivers are licensed by the Antalya Municipality, carry valid commercial transport insurance, and have passed a background check. Their vehicle registration plates are registered on the platform. Your confirmation includes the driver's name, photo, and plate number before travel. If any of these do not match the vehicle that arrives, do not board and contact support immediately.
