Food and drink prices
Expect airport prices. Recent traveller reports describe food and drinks at Antalya Airport as clearly more expensive than in the resorts, and in late 2025 a half-litre bottle of water cost around €1.90 to €2.50 airside. International chains such as Burger King, Popeyes, Subway and Starbucks sit alongside Turkish brands such as Mado, and several outlets are open around the clock.
Many regular visitors bring sandwiches or snacks from the hotel and buy only drinks after security. Food is allowed through security as long as it is not liquid or spreadable.
Drinking water and refills
There are no official public water fountains documented airside, and reports about refills are mixed. Some travellers have had bottles refilled at a Starbucks behind duty free, others were refused at cafés. Bring an empty bottle in case, but budget for buying water.
Lounges, CIP and Priority Pass
Comfort lounges, also called CIP lounges, operate in the international Terminal 2 and in the domestic terminal and are open 24 hours. They accept Priority Pass, LoungeKey and DragonPass members, subject to available space, and can also be booked as day passes; in October 2026 pass prices for the Terminal 2 lounge started at around US$33 for three hours through online sellers, with walk-up prices higher.
The airport's own FTA Exclusive packages go further, with private entrance, check-in and security options. In peak season lounges fill up, so pre-booking is safer than relying on a card at the door.
Free Wi-Fi and mobile data
The airport offers one hour of free internet in all terminals and in the arrival and departure halls. To log in you need a working mobile number, ID card or passport; Wi-Fi kiosks in the halls issue a free PIN code. Lounges have unlimited Wi-Fi.
For a longer stay, an eSIM bought before travel is usually the easiest option, and you can activate it on landing. Keep your phone on after arrival so your transfer team can reach you.
Smoking areas
Smoking is not allowed inside any terminal. International Terminal 1, International Terminal 2 and the domestic terminal each have an outdoor smoking terrace after security, next to the gate area with a view of the apron. Before security, smokers go outside the terminal building. Vaping and heated tobacco follow the same rules.
Money, cash machines and currency exchange
Cash machines are in the arrival and departure areas of the international terminals. Akbank runs 24-hour exchange offices, and exchange desks also operate in the international arrivals baggage halls. Rates at the airport are usually worse than in town, so change only what you need, or use a card: most shops and cafés accept them.
Pharmacies, medical help and special assistance
The international terminals have pharmacies (eczane) and medical services, listed as open 24 hours. If you or someone in your group needs special assistance or a wheelchair, request it through your airline, ideally at least 48 hours before you fly, and mention it when booking your transfer so the vehicle and meeting point suit you. Vehicles carrying disabled passengers can use the airport car park free of charge for up to 15 days.
Travelling with children
Children's play areas are located airside near the gates in Terminals 1 and 2, and baby changing rooms are in all terminals. Baby food and milk are allowed in hand luggage in reasonable amounts for the journey. If you need child seats for the transfer, add them when you book.
Sleeping at the airport and lost property
Antalya Airport is open 24 hours, but there are no dedicated sleeping areas, and the airside zone is not available overnight before your departure window. For very early flights, a night in a hotel near the airport or in Lara is often more comfortable.
The lost and found office is open daily from 08:30 to 23:59 in Terminal 1, the domestic terminal and Terminal 2 (kayip.esya@antalya-airport.aero).
