Antalya from Dresden – Direct Flight to the Turkish Riviera
Antalya is the most popular holiday destination from Dresden – and with good reason. The Turkish Riviera is served from Dresden Airport (DRS) several times a week nonstop by Pegasus, Sundair and SunExpress; especially at the start of the holidays, several aircraft depart towards AYT at once. After about three hours of flying, kilometres of sandy beaches, all-inclusive hotels for every budget, the old town of Kaleiçi with its Ottoman lanes and ancient sites such as Side, Perge or Aspendos await you. Whether a relaxing beach holiday in Belek and Lara, a family break in Kemer or excursions into the Taurus mountains – the combination of guaranteed sunshine, value for money and the short journey from Dresden makes Antalya a perennial favourite.
