Adnan Menderes Airport ADBLTBJ

Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport (ADB) is Izmir’s main airport, about 18 km south of the city. Treat it as a strong regional and leisure gateway rather than a major global alliance hub: Turkish Airlines uses Izmir as a focus city, while SunExpress, Pegasus and Corendon have an operating-base presence. The network mixes dense domestic flying with European and seasonal leisure routes, so many connections are domestic-to-international or international-to-domestic rather than long-haul banked transfers.

Timezone: Europe/Istanbul
