Antalya airport overrun by tourists as prices soar sky‑high
It's started! The airport in Antalya, Turkey, is experiencing an actual siege. Videos have surfaced online showing constant streams of tourists passing through. Those who are thirsty or hungry will have to dig deeper into their wallets. "You'll need a mortgage," joke internet users.
People going on vacation are usually looking for places where they can relax in the warmth by the sea, enjoy beautiful views, and savour delicious cuisine.
If they can do it without spending a fortune, all the better. That's exactly why tourists love Turkey.
For some time now, Antalya has been breaking records in popularity, known for its extensive beaches, picturesque views, and interesting landmarks.
You can fly directly to this resort from many cities, but judging by the videos that have appeared on social media, many appreciate the advantages of this Turkish city.
TikTok users showed what the airport in Antalya looks like in recent days. The recordings show crowds of tourists constantly rolling through the airport.
Good luck to anyone traveling from the airport in Antalya, wrote one of the video authors with sarcasm.
Prices at Antalya airport
When heading for a vacation in this popular resort, it's worth arming yourself with patience and taking a well-stocked wallet. Tourists also displayed the prices at the besieged airport. "You'll need a mortgage to buy anything... Prices are crazy! CAD 30 for a piece of pizza," reports one of the video authors.
But that's not all. Pringles chips cost €6.50 (CAD 10), a frozen coffee costs CAD 13-14, and a chicken sandwich is the same. Salads are similarly priced. However, it's worth noting that the portions are large, and no expense was spared in preparing meals for tourists.
