Dalaman Airport Parking

How Parking Is Organised

Both terminals have car parks directly opposite, within a short walk of the entrance. Charging is time-based, with an initial free or low-cost period for drop-offs and pick-ups, rising through hourly bands to a daily rate.

Long stays are charged at the daily rate, so leaving a car for a two-week holiday is a meaningful cost — worth comparing against a return transfer or taxi from home, particularly for anyone living in Fethiye or Dalyan.

Tariffs are set by the airport operator and revised periodically. Rates are displayed at the barrier and at the pay machines; confirm on the day rather than relying on a figure found online.

Drop-Off and Pick-Up

For drop-offs, the short free period at the entry barrier is normally enough — say goodbye at the kerb rather than walking to check-in and you will not pay.

For pick-ups, the timing is trickier. Do not enter the car park until your arriving passenger has actually cleared baggage reclaim; waiting inside burns through the free period while bags are still on the belt. Check the arrivals board for the landing time and allow 30–40 minutes after touchdown.

Payment is at the machines before returning to the vehicle. Cards are generally accepted, but carry some lira as a fallback.

Accessible Parking

Designated spaces for disabled drivers are provided close to the terminal entrances. A valid disabled parking badge must be displayed in the vehicle.

If you need assistance inside the terminal, request it from your airline at least 48 hours before departure — special assistance is arranged by the carrier, not the airport.
