Antalya Airport (AYT)

By | 30.09.2026

Antalya Airport (IATA: AYT, ICAO: LTAI) is the principal gateway to the Turkish Riviera and the second busiest international airport in Turkey. Located approximately 13 kilometres northeast of Antalya city centre, the airport is operated by Fraport TAV Antalya Havalimanı.

Antalya Airport set a historic record in 2025, welcoming 39.2 million passengers and 229,000 aircraft movements across the year. This represents a 3% increase over 38.1 million passengers in 2024 and a 10% increase over the pre-pandemic record of 35.6 million in 2019. The growth is particularly notable given that the airport lost significant traffic from its two largest markets, Russia and Ukraine. In January and February 2026, the airport continued to record historically high traffic, reflecting sustained demand for cultural, adventure, and eco-tourism in the region.

The airport operates three passenger terminals: International Terminal 1, International Terminal 2, Domestic Terminal, and a CIP Terminal. International flights are handled by two terminals, while domestic flights use one terminal. Terminals are assigned by airline rather than nationality.
