New Direct Flights to Alanya Boost Property Appeal!

Author: Luxury Estate Turkey Viewed 448 times 14 July 2025

Landing a buyer often starts with landing a plane. Direct flights to Alanya are expanding fast, and the latest Amsterdam-Gazipaşa route proves it. Moreover, the city’s growing air network shortens travel time, fuels tourism, and—most importantly—raises demand for property in Alanya. In the following guide you will discover how an airport welcome of carnations and a “water salute” can translate into stronger rental yields, higher resale values, and a more diverse pool of future tenants.

From Amsterdam to the Mediterranean: Inside the New Route

TUI Airlines Nederland touched down at Gazipaşa–Alanya Airport on Monday with 184 excited travellers on board. Local officials greeted them with red carnations, folk music, and the traditional “water salute”—two fire-trucks arching jets over the aircraft as it taxied in. Consequently, social feeds lit up with smiling passengers and “see-you-in-Alanya” selfies.

A Warm Turkish Welcome in Four Simple Steps

  1. Water salute: a universal aviation celebration marking inaugural flights.

  2. Floral reception: carnations handed to every passenger.

  3. Local delicacies: samples of Alanya’s famed citrus and gözleme.

  4. Media splash: regional TV crews broadcasting the moment across Europe.

As a result, the message was clear: Alanya is ready for business, leisure, and long-term living.

Six Countries, One Goal: Growing Gazipaşa Connectivity

The Amsterdam launch is not a one-off. During the last two months alone, municipal and tourism bodies have secured direct links from six different nations. Furthermore, the schedule stretches all the way to October—an encouraging sign for off-season occupancy.

 

Origin Country Airline Weekly Flights (peak) Launch Month
Netherlands TUI Nederland 2 July 2025  
Denmark SunClass 1 June 2025  
Kazakhstan SCAT 1 May 2025  
Uzbekistan Qanot Sharq 1 May 2025  
Hungary Wizz Air 2 April 2025  
Slovakia Smartwings 1 April 2025  

 

Consequently, holidaymakers from Central Asia, Eastern Europe, and Scandinavia can now reach Alanya in under four hours without transfers. That convenience translates into more booked nights, longer shoulder seasons, and stronger cash flow for landlords.

Why Air Access Matters for Real-Estate Values?

Shorter Travel Windows, Higher Rental Demand

Vacationers choose destinations that are easy to reach. Because Amsterdam residents can now fly nonstop twice a week, last-minute city breakers suddenly add Alanya to their shortlist. In turn, occupancy rates rise, nightly prices climb, and annual gross yields approach 7 %-9 % in districts with modern stock.

Diversified Buyer Profiles Fuel Price Growth

Until recently, Russian-speaking and Scandinavian buyers dominated coastal transactions. However, direct links from Hungary, Slovakia, and Kazakhstan widen the demographic mix, creating competitive bidding on well-located apartments. Moreover, mortgage-free Central Asian investors often close within a week, adding upward pressure to median prices.

Case-Study Districts: Who Benefits First?

 

District Typical €/m² (Q2 2025) Strength 12-M Price Trend
Cikcilli 1 450 – 1 650 Large malls, hospitals ▲ 11 %
Oba 1 600 – 1 850 Beaches, schools ▲ 13 %
Mahmutlar 1 250 – 1 450 Year-round rentals ▲ 9 %
Kargıcak 1 100 – 1 350 Villas, green belts ▲ 10 %

 

Thanks to the new routes, Cikcilli and Oba already show price moves above the city average. Furthermore, property managers in Mahmutlar report booking inquiries from Dutch and Hungarian families—a market segment previously uncommon.

What This Means for You as an Investor?

  • Higher exit liquidity: More nationalities = more potential buyers on resale.

  • Extended season: Flights run March-November, so eight months of rental income become plausible.

  • Instant brand lift: Each inaugural flight is free advertising for the region—boosting future search traffic for “apartments for sale in Alanya”.

  • Confidence booster: Municipal coordination proves local authorities back tourism growth, reducing systemic risk.

Numbers That Speak Volumes

Assume you purchase a €240.000 two-room apartment in Oba. With 70 % occupancy at €95 per night, annual gross revenue exceeds €24.000. After HOA fees, DASK insurance, and property tax, net yield sits near 7 %. If prices mirror last year’s 13 % rise, capital appreciation alone could outpace €31.000 by summer 2026. That combination—yield plus equity—is what lenders call “turbo-charged return”.

Living the Air-Connected Lifestyle

Beyond spreadsheets, direct flights make spontaneous living possible. You finish a Friday video call in Amsterdam at 14:00, grab a 17:30 nonstop, and sip a sundowner on Oba Beach by 22:00. Similarly, remote-work families from Budapest can split the academic year: spring term beside the Mediterranean, autumn back home. As a result, international schools, coworking cafés, and gourmet grocery stores flourish—raising the overall quality of life for residents.
