How many km from Antalya Airport to the centre?
Antalya Airport (AYT) is roughly 13–14 km from the city centre. Depending on traffic, that corresponds to about a 20–30 minute drive; the busy summer season can stretch this a little.
Which “centre”? Distances by area
In Antalya, “the centre” means different things depending on where you are headed:
- Muratpaşa / Kaleiçi (old town): ~13–14 km, ~20–25 minutes
- Lara: ~12 km, ~15–20 minutes
- Kundu: ~18 km, ~20–25 minutes
- Konyaaltı beach: ~18–20 km, ~25–35 minutes
Ways to reach the centre
The tram (T1 line) and city buses run from the airport to the centre; however, public transport is hard work with large suitcases, and the options thin out late at night. The most comfortable way is a door-to-door private vehicle with Duru VIP Transfer: your flight is tracked, your driver greets you by name at the terminal exit, and you go straight to your address.
How close the airport is to the resorts
The location of Antalya Airport speeds up access to the main holiday areas: Lara is ~12 km (15–20 min), Kundu ~18 km (20–25 min) and Belek ~35 km (30–40 min). For short hops a taxi can be considered, while on longer routes the predictability of a fixed-fare private transfer stands out.
