Flying to Antalya: what to know
Antalya is served by two airports, not one — most travelers only think of Antalya Airport (AYT), but Gazipaşa–Alanya Airport (GZP) can be the faster option if you are staying in Alanya. Picking the right one before you book can save you an hour or more of transfer time.
AYT is a major international hub with direct routes from most of Europe, Istanbul, and the Gulf, and it runs both scheduled and seasonal charter flights — capacity is highest from May to October, which is also when fares are least flexible. Booking 2-3 months ahead for peak summer dates is a reasonable rule of thumb; last-minute fares can spike sharply in July and August.
GZP is smaller, with a narrower set of routes (mainly seasonal charters from Northern Europe and Russia, plus domestic connections via Istanbul). It is not a fallback — for an Alanya stay specifically, it is usually the better airport, not just a backup.
