Flights to Turkey

If you're considering a trip to Europe or Asia, but can't decide on which country to visit, why not choose Turkey? This scenic country bridges the gap between the two continents, offering a mix of both European and Asian influences evident in its history and culture. It's also got remarkable natural landscapes along the Aegean Coast, Mediterranean Coast and the Anatolian regions.

On the Aegean coastline, you'll find outstanding beaches, turquoise waters and ancient ruins in Izmir, Bodrum, Kusadasi and Antalya. The Mediterranean coast is another beach paradise, but also has more historic sites and beautiful seaside towns, including Kemer, Olympos and Kas.

If cultural treasures are more your thing, there are plenty hiding in the Anatolia regions, including Mount Nemrut, the ancient city of Hatay and the extraordinary rock formations of Cappadocia. Turkey really does have one of the best landscapes in the world, packed full of sights for every kind of traveller.

Ankara is a city that has lived through many empires. Its origins date back to the Hittite era (1st millennium BC), but today, it's known as Turkey's capital city (replacing Istanbul in 1923). A key historical landmark in the capital is the mausoleum of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, who was actually the founder of modern-day Turkey.

The city of Ankara is easily accessible from many major cities across Europe and Asia. If you're travelling from other continents, the trip involves 1-2 stops, but this is made easy when you book through Alternative Airlines. No need to stress, all the flights are booked in one simple itinerary to make your travel plans more convenient and hassle-free!

The peak season for Ankara is June to September due to the pleasantly warm temperatures. It's generally a good idea to book your flights to Ankara well in advance if you'd like to go during this time, as prices rise during peak season. Flights in the shoulder seasons are typically cheaper, often falling between April/May and September/October.
