Kayseri Erkilet International Airport

Kayseri Erkilet International Airport is about 5 to 6 km north of Kayseri city center. By taxi the trip usually takes around 10 minutes, and municipal buses take about 15 to 20 minutes. The intercity bus station is about 10 km from the airport, so it is also an easy ride if you continue by coach to other cities.

Göreme is about 75 km from Kayseri Erkilet International Airport, a drive of roughly 75 minutes. Ürgüp is about 65 km away and Uçhisar about 70 km. Shared hotel shuttles take longer, often 90 to 120 minutes, because they stop at several hotels along the way.

Both airports serve Cappadocia. Nevşehir Kapadokya Airport (NAV) is closer, about 43 km from Göreme, but it has fewer flights. Kayseri Erkilet (ASR) is about 75 km from Göreme and has more airlines, year-round service and more international routes, so many travelers find it easier to fit into their schedule.

Kayseri Erkilet International Airport has one terminal building with separate halls for domestic and international flights. The expanded terminal can handle about 6 million passengers a year. Because everything is under one roof and the airport is small, getting from the gate to the exit or the taxi rank is quick.

Turkish Airlines flies to Istanbul Airport, and AJet and Pegasus Airlines fly to Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen. Pegasus and SunExpress also serve Antalya, Izmir and many cities in Germany and the Netherlands. Corendon Airlines and Eurowings run seasonal flights from Germany, and other carriers add seasonal services from Europe.

Yes. Taxis wait outside the terminal 24 hours a day. The ride into Kayseri center takes about 10 minutes. Taxis can also go to Cappadocia, but it is a long trip of more than an hour, so confirm the destination and route with the driver before you leave.

Yes. Municipal bus lines 100, 101 and 271 run between the airport and Kayseri, taking about 15 to 20 minutes to the center. Cash is not accepted on board, so you need a Kayseri Kart. The Havaş airport bus service has been suspended at times, so check before relying on it.

Most visitors use a shared shuttle timed to their flight or a private transfer straight to their hotel in Göreme, Ürgüp, Uçhisar or Avanos. Shuttle seats must be reserved in advance. Another option is to travel into Kayseri and take a coach or minibus to Nevşehir or the Cappadocia towns, which takes longer.

Uber in Turkey works mainly as a way to book licensed taxis, and its coverage is focused on large cities such as Istanbul, Izmir and Ankara. In Kayseri you should not count on it. The taxi rank outside the terminal, a city bus or a pre-arranged shuttle are the reliable ways to leave the airport.

It depends on your passport. Citizens of the US, Canada, the UK, Australia and many European countries can visit Turkey visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. Others, including Mexican citizens, can apply online for an e-Visa at evisa.gov.tr. Your passport should be valid for at least six months from arrival.

Kayseri uses Turkey Time, UTC+3, all year round; Turkey does not observe daylight saving time. The currency is the Turkish lira (TRY). Central Anatolia has cold, often snowy winters and hot, dry summers, with the coldest weather between December and February.

Kayseri Erkilet International Airport is run by DHMİ, Turkey's State Airports Authority, and shares its runway with a Turkish Air Force base. It handled about 2.8 million passengers in 2025, up from about 2.6 million in 2024. Most traffic is domestic, with seasonal international flights to Europe.
