Terminals

The terminals of the airport Antalya are independent of each other, which also means that no structural connection to get from one terminal to the other. An exception is the Domestic Terminal (domestic terminal), which was attached to the terminal 1.

National terminal

The old and the first terminal of the airport ( Turkish: Antalya Havalimanı iç hatlar terminali ), which is rather small compared to the other building complexes with 20.480m ² footprint and only four gates, made ​​to 1998 from all flights. At busy times such as the holiday season prevailed in the overcrowded terminal partly chaotic, so that tourists had to wait sometimes up to half an hour at about 40 ° C and without sunscreen patient due to security checks at the entrance, before they could enter the building. Similar situations were found also at the check- in desks and passport control. The terminal was last operated well above the intended capacity, which subsequently led to some massive delays. After the renovation a few years ago this terminal mainly by Atlasjet, Onur Air, Pegasus Airlines and Turkish Airlines has been used for making domestic flights.

2009, a new terminal was built at the same place, which began operations in early 2010. The terminal is managed as a Domestic Terminal with the number 3, and is intended for domestic flights. The check-in hall adjoins directly to the terminal 1. The terminal has four passenger boarding bridges. Inside, the building also with fast food restaurants and a VIP / CIP range of Turkish Airlines is equipped.

1st international terminal

The modern, with 54,300 m² of floor space much larger 1st International Terminal ( Turkish: Antalya Havalimanı 1 Dış hatlar terminali ) went into operation on 1 April 1998. The construction costs for the building complex, for an upstream parking with 725 parking spaces amounted to approximately U.S. $ 65 million. This terminal relieved the old terminal, by henceforth transacted all air traffic. As a result, the old terminal was no longer used and was empty. With the progressive development of Turkey as a popular holiday destination in the Mediterranean region, however, passenger numbers grew so strong that it partially came to similar bottlenecks in the execution here. The regular use of the terminal is currently mainly for international SunExpress flights. In winter, all international flights operate from here.

Second international terminal

With the opening of the 2nd International Terminal ( Turkish: Antalya Havalimanı 2 Dış hatlar terminali ) on 7 April 2005, which doubled the passenger capacity now, seem to be provisionally solved all the problems. It is nearly identical to the first international terminal. The construction costs for the approximately 77,000 m² building complex, as well as an upstream parking with a total of 750 parking spaces were approximately 85.5 million U.S. $. Also located in this building complex is a CIP / VIP terminal. At this terminal almost all international flights are protected by German and Turkish Airlines ( with the exception of SunExpress, Pegasus Airlines and Germania ) handled. In the winter season, this terminal has been closed for several years. All international flights are then handled at Terminal 1.
