⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Ignore touts inside the terminal who offer taxis or transfers. Official drivers wait at the rank and carry airport ID tags; pre-booked drivers meet you with a name board in Arrivals.
  • Make sure the taxi meter starts at 50 TRY. The official AYT tariff has no night surcharge or airport extra; any fixed fare much above 810 TRY for Lara is likely inflated.
  • Bus 800 does not go to Kundu. If your hotel is in Kundu, don't board bus 800 expecting it to stop at the hotel strip; use a taxi or transfer.
  • City bus drivers do not accept cash from the driver. Use a contactless bank card or Antalyakart before boarding; single-use tickets are costlier.
