Antalya Airport → Daima Biz Hotel Transfer

Daima Biz Hotel to Antalya Airport: return transfer & taxi

The order of the last morning matters here more than at most addresses. Between the hotel door and the first straight kilometre there are twenty minutes of bends, and they arrive immediately after whatever breakfast has been eaten. Anyone who travels badly does better with something light an hour before the car than a full plate ten minutes before it, and with a front seat rather than the back row. It is worth keeping one small bag inside the car with the water, the passports and the phone charger, because once the boot is loaded in that lane nothing is coming out of it again.

Northbound the bends unwind the other way round, and that is not the same journey. Coming in, the sea was on your right and you sat on the inside of most curves; going home you ride the outside of them with the drop below, which is when a window cracked open earns its keep. Past Göynük and Beldibi the road straightens, the tunnels take over, and the rest runs easily until the Antalya ring, where in the middle of the afternoon the queue for the airport junction is the only real delay in the whole hour.

• If anyone takes something for travel sickness it wants taking before the car arrives rather than at the first bend, since the winding part starts within a kilometre of the door.
• The boot is loaded on a narrow lane with traffic behind it, so hard cases first and soft bags on top makes the loading quicker than sorting it out at the entrance.
• If the flight is brought forward, send the new time as soon as you have it: this pickup is calculated on an hour of road, most of it along the mountain coast, and that is not time anybody can make up.
