Antalya Airport → Prestige Alanya Transfer

Prestige Alanya to Antalya Airport: return transfer & taxi

Going back, the obstacle is Alanya rather than the coast. The first stretch from Mahmutlar past Kestel is quick, but the D400 through the town centre is an urban road with lights and pedestrian crossings, and from mid-morning into the evening it carries Alanya's own traffic on top of everyone heading west. In the early hours that passage costs little; at noon in August it can cost a good deal. West of the town, the coast road through Konaklı, Avsallar and Okurcalar and the run past Manavgat and Serik are steadier, and the 137 km fit the 115 minutes when the town is quiet.

That makes the pickup hour worth working out with care. Start from the departure time, subtract the check-in period your airline sets, then the 115 minutes, and if the car would be crossing Alanya between late morning and early evening, take off a further margin for the town. For an early flight the sum often means leaving before breakfast, so settle the bill the evening before. Tell us the number of cases as well: on a drive of 115 minutes, a car chosen for the luggage rather than only the passengers makes a real difference.

• Book the departure as Prestige Alanya, with the town named: with two other Prestige hotels on this coast, a short name on a voucher is the likeliest cause of a wrong address.
• The car waits on the road side of the hotel, not by the beach, so bring the bags out through reception rather than towards the underpass.
• Arranging the return leg together with the arrival saves a phone call in the last days of the holiday; tell us if the flight time changes afterwards.
