Things to do in Antalya when you land

Antalya is the capital of the Turkish Riviera: a walled old harbour (Kaleiçi) under the Taurus mountains, a long beach coast running east to Lara, Belek and Side and west to Kemer, and one of the busiest holiday airports in the Mediterranean. The reasons travellers fly from Istanbul to Antalya include the Antalya Museum, Termessos in the mountains, Olympos and the Chimaera flames near Kemer, Hadrian's Gate and the Kaleiçi lanes and the old harbour. For the first meal, try gözleme in the villages, citrus and pomegranates in season and Turkish breakfast with local honey.

Haqqi Tours can provide guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Antalya; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.

Best time to fly from Istanbul to Antalya

The season runs from April to November with hot, dry summers; the airport is at its busiest on summer weekends, when the coast road east towards Side and Alanya fills with transfers from every hotel. On the flight from Istanbul to Antalya, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.

Return flight from Antalya to Istanbul

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Antalya to Istanbul booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.

How much is a flight from Istanbul to Antalya?

Flight prices from Istanbul to Antalya follow demand: book early on a quiet day and you pay a fraction of a last-minute fare in high season. The airline you choose, whether the fare includes baggage, the seat class and the time of the flight all change the total. Rather than quote a number that will be wrong tomorrow, Haqqi Tours checks the fare for the day you want to fly and sends it to you on WhatsApp before you decide.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Istanbul to Antalya flight is often not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Istanbul to Antalya: how to pay less

Finding cheap flights from Istanbul to Antalya is timing plus flexibility. Here is how Haqqi Tours finds the lowest fare on the route:

• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are normally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares
• Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we look up

Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Istanbul to Antalya that day and what a slightly different day would cost.

How to book flights from Istanbul to Antalya with Haqqi Tours

The easiest way to book a flight from Istanbul to Antalya is to let a person do it. The form asks for the essentials; the details - a window seat, an infant, extra baggage, a wheelchair, a special meal - you let us know by WhatsApp when we message you to confirm. We provide the ticket in your name, remind you of the check-in rules of that airline and stay reachable while you travel.

• Step 1 - send the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
• Step 2 - we message you through WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost
• Step 3 - you confirm the flight you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat
• Step 4 - we issue the e-ticket and send it; we stay in touch until you land in Antalya

If plans change, the same chat handles it. We explain the carrier's change and refund rules for the fare you chose before any payment, so there are no surprises later.

Airlines flying from Istanbul to Antalya

On the flight from Istanbul to Antalya you can choose between Turkish Airlines, Pegasus, AJet and SunExpress. A full-service airline generally includes a checked bag, a meal and a flexible ticket; a low-cost fare is cheaper at the start and adds those items one by one. We provide both and tell you the total for the way you actually travel.

• Turkish Airlines - Istanbul to Antalya
• Pegasus - Istanbul to Antalya
• AJet - Istanbul to Antalya
• SunExpress - Istanbul to Antalya

Departure: Istanbul Airport (IST)

Flights from Istanbul to Antalya leave from Istanbul Airport (IST), serving Istanbul - istanbul is the only city that sits on two continents, and its arrivals split the same way: Istanbul Airport (IST) serves the European side and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) the Asian side, with the Bosphorus bridges and the Eurasia Tunnel joining the two halves. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: The M11 metro links Istanbul Airport to Gayrettepe and Kağıthane, and the M4 line reaches Sabiha Gökçen; both then need a change and a walk with your bags, and Havaist and Havabüs coaches stop at fixed points rather than hotels.

• Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
• Haqqi Tours provides a private transfer from your hotel in Istanbul to Istanbul Airport
• Just ask about the terminal and fast-track options at Istanbul Airport
• Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one

Arrival: Antalya Airport (AYT) and getting into Antalya

Arrival is at Antalya Airport (AYT), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Antalya is the capital of the Turkish Riviera: a walled old harbour (Kaleiçi) under the Taurus mountains, a long beach coast running east to Lara, Belek and Side and west to Kemer, and one of the busiest holiday airports in the Mediterranean. We provide airport transfers in Antalya with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.

Arriving late at night? We note it and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the flight; a delay costs you nothing.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Istanbul to Antalya flight

Before you compare the Istanbul to Antalya flight prices, compare what they carry. A fare with hand luggage only can look cheapest and end up dearer once a bag is added. Haqqi Tours offers the fare that matches your bags: cabin bag only for a short trip, checked bag for a holiday, extra allowance for a long stay. Seat selection, meals and priority boarding are optional extras on many airlines; we tell you which are worth it.

• Seat selection free or paid depending on the airline; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy

Flying with children, families and groups from Istanbul to Antalya

Families fly the Istanbul to Antalya route with us week in, week out. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the carrier offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the airline for a group fare where the numbers justify it.
