Parking at Antalya Airport

The airport runs its own car parks — more than five thousand spaces across the two international terminals plus a large multi-storey structure near the domestic building — and a short walk gets you to the terminal doors from any of them. What catches people out is the barrier itself: there is no free passage time in the international terminal parking lots, stated directly by the operator. If you’re used to airports that let you collect someone within a few minutes for nothing, this one doesn’t.

What the airport actually has

Parking at both international terminals, a short walk from the doors — the option for a drop-off or a pick-up, with no free window at either building.

A multi-storey car park near the domestic terminal, with more than two and a half thousand spaces and its own subscription desk on one level. This is the one to look at for a stay of more than a day or two rather than a quick drop-off.

A brief free period in the internal transit car park only — a different facility from the terminal parking most arriving and departing passengers use, and not a substitute for it.

What it costs, as far as this page can confirm

The operator runs a calculator on its own site rather than publishing a fixed tariff table — pick a terminal, a vehicle type and the time in and out, and it returns the fee. The one figure available by default is the calculator’s starting reference:

TRY 140 for the first hour, at the airport’s own default setting.

That single figure is the only one this page can currently confirm — the full grid across different lengths of stay and different terminals isn’t published as a table anywhere, only through the calculator itself, and running it through every combination is a separate piece of work this page doesn’t shortcut with a guess.

Rules that change what you’re actually charged

A subscription runs for a set period from your first entry, without leaving. Come and go more than once inside that period and a surcharge applies to the whole rate — it is charged as a single continuous stay with re-entries, not as separate short visits.

Washing a car or leaving rubbish in the car park adds a large surcharge to the entire stay, not a small fine — the published rules treat it as a serious breach of the terms rather than a minor infraction.

After you pay on the way out, you get a short window to actually leave before the charge starts running again — useful to know if you’re paying before walking back to collect luggage or a passenger.

Stay beyond a full day without a subscription and the charge is calculated as the daily rate plus an hourly add-on for the extra time, rather than simply multiplying the hourly rate all the way through — worth knowing if a flight delay turns a planned short stay into an overnight one.

Some passengers are exempt from charges entirely — including disabled passengers, veterans, and the families of those who died in service, for an extended free period, and government or diplomatic vehicles for a short one. If you fall into one of these categories, check the operator’s own eligibility terms rather than assuming the standard rate applies.

When not to drive at all

For a single trip to or from the terminal, parking is a cost you can avoid entirely. The tram reaches one of the two international terminals directly, the taxi rank is outside every terminal building, and a pre-booked car delivers you to the door without anything to park.

If you’re meeting someone, remember that landing is not arriving — check the arrivals board rather than the scheduled time before you park and start a clock that has no free minutes on it.

Where to next

Renting a car if you’re picking one up here rather than leaving one behind. Finding your way around the terminals for which building you actually need.
