Looking for the cheapest way from Antalya Airport? This guide breaks down low-cost options first, then helps you balance budget with comfort and travel time. In the verified route data used here, Havas serves Antalya city centre; do not assume a direct Havas service to Belek, Side, Kemer or Alanya, and plan a connection from the centre for those resorts.
Location: Antalya Airport (AYT), Antalya Province, Türkiye. Fares change, use this page to plan, then confirm on travel day.
Cheapest Option: ANTAŞ Public Buses
For most travelers, the lowest-cost airport option is ANTAŞ city buses (Line 600/800).
- Adult fare: 42 TRY
- Child fare: 20 TRY
- Important: You need an AntalyaKart (cash not accepted)
Great for budget travel, but often slower than taxi or direct transfer.
Havas: Mid-Budget, Better Comfort
Havas is usually a good middle-ground option between price and convenience.
- Adult fare: 220 TRY
- Child fare: 110 TRY
- Benefit: Flight-aligned shuttle style
Havas does not provide a direct route to Belek, Side, Kemer or Alanya in this route set. Reaching those districts requires a second leg from Antalya city centre. Check the Antalya Airport shuttle page again on your travel day for the latest service and fare details.
If you carry luggage, many travelers find this easier than local bus transfers.
Taxi: Fastest but Usually Most Expensive
Taxi is convenient, but not budget-friendly on longer routes.
Sample estimates:
- Antalya Center 900 TRY
- Belek 1900 TRY
- Kemer 2650 TRY
- Side 3700 TRY
- Alanya 7000 TRY
If you care about Antalya Airport to Belek transfer time and not only price, a taxi or private transfer is usually about 40–70 minutes door-to-door; budget routes with connections often take longer overall. See Antalya Airport to Belek.

| Side | Cheapest route exists, but much longer total time |
| Alanya | Cheapest route is transfer-heavy, lower comfort |
