Getting from Antalya Airport to Alanya – Everything You Need to Know
Planning a holiday in Alanya? Antalya Airport (AYT) is the main international gateway for travellers heading to Alanya and the surrounding resorts.
The journey is longer than to destinations such as Belek or Side, but getting from Antalya Airport to Alanya is straightforward when you choose the right transport option.
Alanya is famous for its long Mediterranean beaches, historic Alanya Castle, dramatic coastline and lively nightlife. The wider area also includes popular resort destinations such as Mahmutlar, Kargıcak, Oba and Kestel.
In this guide, you'll find everything you need to know about travelling from Antalya Airport to Alanya, including the approximate distance, journey time, transport options, private transfer prices and tips for making your arrival easier.
How Far Is Antalya Airport from Alanya?
Alanya is approximately 135 km from Antalya Airport by road.
Under normal traffic conditions, the journey takes around 1 hour 45 minutes by car, although the actual travel time can vary depending on traffic, road conditions and your exact hotel location.
The route follows the D400 coastal highway, with much of the journey running alongside the Mediterranean coastline.
Because Alanya is considerably farther from Antalya Airport than destinations such as Belek and Side, the comfort of your transfer can be particularly important after a long international flight.
Best Ways to Get from Antalya Airport to Alanya
There are several ways to travel between Antalya Airport and Alanya. The best option depends on your budget, luggage and how much convenience you want.
1. Private Airport Transfer – Recommended
A private transfer takes you directly from Antalya Airport to your Alanya hotel without waiting for other passengers or making multiple hotel stops.
With TTTurs, the private transfer price is €79.
Your transfer includes:
- Fixed price of €79
- No hidden fees
- Meet & greet at Antalya Airport
- Flight tracking for delays
- Direct airport-to-hotel service
- Air-conditioned vehicle
- Professional driver
- 24/7 support after booking
After landing, you can meet your driver and start your journey to Alanya without having to arrange transport at the airport.
2. Shared Shuttle
Shared shuttle services can be a cheaper alternative to a private vehicle, but passengers may be dropped off at several different hotels along the route.
Depending on the number of passengers and stops, this can make the journey considerably longer.
For families, groups and travellers with several pieces of luggage, a direct private transfer can be a more convenient option.
3. Public Transport
Public transport is generally the cheapest option, but travelling from Antalya Airport to Alanya by public transport requires more planning.
Depending on the route and connections available, you may need to travel towards Antalya before continuing to Alanya by intercity bus.
With connections and waiting times included, the total journey can take more than three hours.
For travellers focused primarily on price, public transport can make sense. For visitors arriving with luggage who want to reach their hotel as easily as possible, a direct transfer is usually more convenient.
4. Taxi
Taxis are available at Antalya Airport and can take you directly to Alanya.
However, the journey is around 135 km, meaning a long-distance taxi can become expensive.
A pre-booked private transfer allows you to know the price before travelling and arrange your airport pickup in advance.
Which Is the Best Way to Get from Antalya Airport to Alanya?
For many holidaymakers, a private airport transfer offers a good combination of convenience, comfort and predictable pricing.
This is particularly useful because Alanya is around 135 km from Antalya Airport.
After a long flight, avoiding connections, waiting for other passengers and multiple hotel stops can make a noticeable difference.
A private transfer also takes you directly to your accommodation rather than leaving you at a bus station or another central location.
