    Looking to go Fethiye in June, airbnb’s looks v. nice and cheap so good way to relax with privacy. But flights to Antalya & Dalaman are insane, we are talking £400 return and really £500 for good flight times. Any tips (alternative airports?), or alternate locations in Turkey recommended? New to the region so trying to hack the price down,

    Benny, was just wondering if you’re looking at the first week of June, with the
    mega bank holiday, and hence the prices?

    It isn’t usually that high.
    As above, are you travelling during the school half term and extended bank holiday period?

    Unfortunately everywhere I’ve looked is silly money for that bank holiday.
    To put into perspective, it is possible to fly to AYT or DLM for under £80pp return, HBO from a London-ish airport on off peak dates.
    I’ve achieved under £150pp in peak summer school holiday times not so long ago.

    Both are good destinations. I’d pick Antalya over Fethiye.
    Fethiye is a working town (though it has Calis Beach, and Oludeniz isn’t too far away), so I presume you are actually thinking of somewhere in the Mugla province – perhaps nearer to Dalaman or Dalyan?

    Thanks. On location not sure, just saw this as of interest so let me read up on other locations.

    The Hilton Sarigerme is well regarded. Only a short taxi ride from Dalaman DLM.
    You can visit Dalyan, Fethiye, Oludeniz and elsewhere from there, all within an hour’s drive.
