⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Ignore touts inside Arrivals offering cheap taxis or special buses to Kaş; there is no direct airport bus to Kaş. Use the official taxi rank or a pre-booked transfer.
  • Never put luggage into a taxi before agreeing on the price or confirming the meter is on. Airport taxis are priced per car, not per person, but fixed destination prices can vary.
  • On the airport bus, pay by bank/credit card and ignore anyone who says the bus is not running and tries to lead you to an unlicensed minivan.
  • Have some Turkish lira for the Fethiye-Kaş intercity bus and for a short taxi in Kaş; not all small operators accept foreign cards or contactless payments.
