Can international travelers withdraw cash or pay by UnionPay card at Antalya Airport?

From messages by 6 participants in 3 sources · Last activity: 45 days ago

TL;DR

At Antalya Airport, travelers report better chances of withdrawing cash with UnionPay at an İş Bankası ATM, described as the second machine from the circular area. Card acceptance in shops is inconsistent, so carrying backup cash is advisable.

What the community said

A Russian Agricultural Bank UnionPay card was not accepted everywhere at Antalya Airport. Payment via Sber QR worked in chain grocery stores, with assistance from a shop employee.

For UnionPay cash withdrawals, travelers recommend the İş Bankası ATM, described as the second machine when counting from the circular area. Other ATMs may charge substantially higher fees.

İş Bankası ATM

There is an ATM near the airport exit. Travelers found its location more easily in Yandex Maps than in Google Maps.

Travelers report that cash withdrawals are possible with a physical Letim card at ATMs, but it is worth checking the individual bank’s fee and withdrawal limit before using it.

Physical Letim card

Card payments work only selectively in airport shops: some merchants accept them, but travelers should keep cash as a backup.

UnionPay can work at hotels, markets and ATMs abroad, but acceptance depends on the individual terminal configuration. If a payment is declined, try another merchant or ATM.
