Sometimes in the season, when Terminal 2 is overloaded, flights are redirected to Terminal 1, but you should keep in mind that it is quite far away — 3 km.
Can you walk from Terminal 2 to the Domestic Terminal?
No, Antalya Terminal 2 is located separately at a distance of 3 km. Transport or a pre-arranged transfer is required between Antalya Airport terminals. A free shuttle runs between the terminals every 30 minutes.
