How to get from Erciyes to Kayseri Airport
Kayseri Airport (ASR) is the closest airport to Erciyes ski resort. From the hotels on the Tekir plateau it is 28.7–32.0 km by road. The map estimate is under 30 minutes; in winter we plan 45 minutes for snow and traffic. Kaf Otel at Hacılar Gate is closer: 24.6 km.

|---|---|---|
| Licensed yellow taxi | Taximeter, about 1,941–2,155 TL per car | Small groups, early flights |

By taxi
All licensed taxis in Kayseri use the same taximeter tariff: 75 TL to start and 65 TL per kilometre, with no night surcharge. From the Erciyes hotels to the airport that comes to about 1,941–2,155 TL for the whole car. Booking the evening before by WhatsApp or phone is the simplest way to be sure of an early ride.
When to leave
Plan to be at the airport 2 hours before departure, and allow about 45 minutes for the mountain road in winter.
| Flight | Leave hotel |
|---|---|
| 07:00 | 04:15 |
| 09:00 | 06:15 |
| 12:00 | 09:15 |
| 15:00 | 12:15 |
Winter road
Fresh snow and ice can slow the road down the mountain, especially early in the morning. If heavy snow is forecast the night before, leave earlier.
