Antalya Airport (AYT) — Turkey's Busiest Holiday Airport
Welcoming 200,000+ passengers a day in summer, Antalya Airport rises to become Turkey's second busiest airport after Istanbul Airport. Terminal 1 (T1) serves international flights — primarily the German, Russian, Dutch, Scandinavian and Middle East markets — while Terminal 2 (T2) handles domestic connections to Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir. Due to the heavy operations of THY, Pegasus, AnadoluJet and SunExpress, airport taxis and transfers run out quickly especially in summer; a rental car is far more advantageous in terms of both cost and flexibility.
AYT Terminal Handover — Process
The company you book via RentaCarSAW records your flight number in the system. After landing, a company representative meets you at baggage claim and hands over your vehicle within 15–20 minutes. You can filter companies that charge no surcharge for night flights (00:00–06:00) on the platform — on many competing platforms in the European market, night handover is offered with a 30–50% surcharge.
Delayed flights: Because you enter your flight number in the system, your vehicle is not given to anyone else; the company waits. No waiting fees are charged.

Car Rental Without a Credit Card — Visitors from Abroad and Young Drivers
A significant proportion of the companies on the RentaCarSAW platform rent without a credit card requirement. Cash (TRY/EUR), bank transfer, Wise, Revolut, Apple Pay/Google Pay are offered. This is a critical advantage especially for:
- Visitors from abroad holidaying in Turkey (Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria)
- Young drivers (aged 21–25) who don't use a credit card due to age or card history
- Business travellers who pay cash or by transfer for banking reasons
Filtering: Tick the "no credit card" option to see all suitable companies on one page.
Summer Season Special: Convertible + Premium
For a Mediterranean summer holiday, choosing a convertible is becoming more popular every year. Models such as MX-5, T-Roc Convertible and BMW 4 Convertible are available at a limited number of companies at AYT. At the summer weekend peaks, stocks sell out 30–45 days in advance. For a convertible booking, we recommend booking at least 60 days in advance via RentaCarSAW.
The premium class (Mercedes C/E, BMW 3/5, Audi A4) is preferred for business travel and special celebrations. Guests arriving for golf tours in Belek should consider the premium SUV option (Mercedes GLC, BMW X3) — boot space is critical for golf bags.
