Why visit Side
Thirty guides, answering four kinds of question. Six are about a decision taken before anything is booked: which of the three airports your flight actually uses, what a transfer costs and why, whether a car waiting at a rank is the same thing as one booked in advance. Ten are about the arrival itself — which terminal, where a driver is allowed to stand, what happens when the flight lands at two in the morning, and how a return pickup hour is worked backwards from a departure.
Two cover who is travelling with you: the child seat and the ages we need in order to fit it, and the family whose pushchair has to fold before it goes in the boot. The remaining twelve are about the coast once you are on it — what actually separates Side, Belek and Alanya, what a day trip costs you in hours rather than euros, where the shopping is, where to eat out away from the hotel, and which weeks of the year the heat and the sea make the decision for you.
Each of these exists because the same question kept arriving by message, and a message answers it once. What they have in common is that almost everything which goes wrong on a transfer was decided early: the airport printed on the ticket, an address given as nothing more than the name of a resort, a vehicle chosen on seat count when the problem was always going to be the boot. Every guide links down to the destination and route pages, which carry the current distance and the fixed price, so no figure in the library can go stale.
