As one of the Mediterranean’s most popular holiday destinations, Antalya now welcomes international travelers with even greater comfort, speed, and modernity—thanks to the opening of its brand-new airport terminal. Serving over 35 million passengers in 2024 alone, Antalya Airport (AYT) has expanded its capacity to 80 million annually in response to growing tourism demand.
The grand opening of the new terminal took place with the attendance of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. During the ceremony, it was emphasized that the expansion not only increases capacity but also significantly enhances the overall passenger experience.
For international visitors, these upgrades mean shorter passport queues, faster baggage claim, larger duty-free zones, and state-of-the-art lounges. The terminal also features environmentally friendly technologies and smart navigation systems designed to make every step of the journey smoother.
With millions of tourists arriving year-round, this strategic investment is expected to further strengthen Antalya’s position in both the European and Middle Eastern markets. The new terminal is more than a transit point—it’s the place where your vacation truly begins.
