Antalya in Turkey is a major international gateway to the country. It handles a lot of international flights, as well as a healthy mix of domestic and military movements. The busiest times are in July and August, when a lot of European charter airlines pass through the airport, especially from Germany.
The airport has two parallel runways.
Views are possible over the ramp from the International Terminal, although many aircraft park in awkward positions so you have to wait for them to move.
The Domestic Terminal isn’t much use, although there are a few spots around the perimeter where you can see aircraft. Be warned, however, that security is tight with this being a military base.
The IC Airport Hotel has views over the action from odd-numbered rooms on upper floors.
