Getting TO/AROUND: As there is not enough plain near bodrum, for many years there was no airport nearby.. Small airport nearby was too far to reply the demand.. And many charter flights were flying to Izmir, which is 250 km away.. In the year 2000, new Bodrum airport has started for operation. The airport is 40 km away from Bodrum town center. The new airport is hosting some 2- 2,5 millon tourists in a year. And especially in summer time it is over crowded.. There is no regular bus or train connection from the airport to Bodrum. There are Coaches of Havas, but they operate in paralel hours with the THY flights.. So if your flight lands, when there is no Turkish airlines Flight, you need to take a taxi from the airport.. Turkish Airlines have direct flights to Istanbul and there are many charter companies flying in summer time.. Bodrum airport: +90 252 523 01 01 Airport Tax: +90 252 536 61 47

Getting TO/AROUND: When you reached the Bodrum airport, if you dont have a bus or car waiting for you, than you should most probably be getting on to a taxi.. For many tourists Taxis are a kind of nightmare, they always think that they will be ripped off as its their first time there...But you can feel comfortable in Bodrum. Taxi prices are set to one fix rate, and changing according to the location.. There is no taximeter but a fix rate.. And these prices are listed on a panel, where you get your taxi.. So this helps you to know how much you are going to pay.. No risk of being ripped off, and no place for the feeling "Is he taking the longest way to take more money??" Taxi prices are valid 24 hrs, and they are in Turkish lira.. the picture shows the distances the prices for 2003.. Dont be dazzled with the zeros, 1 Euro= 1650,000 TRL, So taxi to Bodrum from the airport is around 30,- Euro..
