Situated in the Aegean region of Turkey on the Lycian Coast, Fethiye is one of southern Turkey’s best known holiday destinations yet despite its popularity it remains distinctly Turkish. This harbour and market town offers plenty of attractions to keep you occupied while on holiday in Fethiye and it’s easy to get to too.

 

Your holiday in Fethiye will begin at Dalaman International Airport as Fethiye does not have its own international airport. Dalaman International Airport is one of the major airports in this part of the country so there are numerous airlines to choose from, and the airport is well linked by road to the Aegean’s popular resorts.

 

At less than 40 miles from door to door, getting to your accommodation in Fethiye is relatively quick and easy. The journey time should be somewhere between an hour, and an hour and a half, and to top it off it’s a spectacular drive. The views from the pine clad mountains above Fethiye and the coast are just amazing, and give some indication of all the scenic beauty you’ll be enjoying while on holiday in Fethiye.

 

There are several options for getting from Dalaman Airport to your hotel in Fethiye. You could rent a car and do the drive yourself. As there are many places to visit around Fethiye you may want to have the use of a hire car for the duration of your holiday anyway, so it could make sense to hire one from the airport. Make your booking in advance through our website for the best deals and availability.

 

Another option is to take a taxi to Dalaman bus station and then board one of the buses or coaches that travel to Fethiye. These leave fairly regularly and can be very affordable. Alternatively you could take a taxi for the entire journey. This will be fairly costly though and you should find out the price before leaving the airport.

 

Your flight to Fethiye will arrive at Dalaman International Airport and you have a good selection of airlines to choose from. Compare both schedules and prices when you’re deciding on which flight to take – the cheapest may get you there at an inconvenient time of the day so is not always best.

 

There are low cost and charter airlines to choose from for a flight to Dalaman, including a couple based in Turkey itself, such as Onur Air, Pegasus Airlines, and Cyprus Turkish Airlines, plus there are British based airlines such as Thomas Cook Airlines, Thomson Airways, Monarch Airlines and EasyJet, as well as Viking Airlines, Jet2.com, and Freebird Airlines.
