The end of my short voyage to Turkey and North Cyprus. In the morning I said Goodbye to Side and took a minibus to the highway, then a bus to the airport junction near Antalya.
Yes – there are taxi transfers from Side to the airport but they charge 90 lira per cab… Do not forget that I am budget traveller. Bus to the junction cost me 7 lira. Do not worry – friendly driver will stop on the highway for you – just ask! Then there is 2 km walk to the international terminal – easy exercice in the morning – they built even a sidewalk for you dear backpacker! Smile to the security control… At the terminal you can recognize that it is wrong place: you will not find your flight on the list… Wow!
It is not written in the ticket that there is choice of two terminals. There is also second, new terminal 2 – 1,5 km away further to the sea… You are already little sweaty but there is no choice. Or maybe you are ready to pay hefty taxi fee??? Just allow plenty of time – I was walking there another 25 minutes…
The flight to Munich was on time… Two very strict security controls in Munich airport – they wanted me to drink all water from my travel bottle!!!
It was late afternoon when I landed in Gdansk airport. Dark. Cold. I dream again to go to the tropics… Soon, soon…
