Two separate car parks: the Citizen Car Park and the Tourism Car Park
Ercan Airport has two separate parking areas with two different tariffs. This distinction, which occasionally causes confusion among the public, works as follows:
- Citizen Car Park: The area used for passenger drop-off, pick-up, and both short- and long-term parking. Fees are set in Turkish Lira and displayed on the electronic board at the entrance.
- Tourism Car Park: A completely separate area serving mainly the tourism sector, frequent travellers, and long-term use. It is operated by Selene Ticaret Ltd, and its prices are set in Euros.
Citizen Car Park fees (2026)
The current tariff for the Citizen Car Park is displayed on the electronic board at the entrance. For 2026, the fees are as follows (prices may change; check the board at the entrance for the exact amount):
| Parking duration | Fee |
|---|---|
| 0–15 minutes | Free |
| 1 hour | 150 TL |
| 1–2 hours | 300 TL |
| 2–6 hours | 400 TL |
| 6–12 hours | 450 TL |
| 12–24 hours | 650 TL |
For stays longer than 24 hours, charging continues at the daily rate. If you plan to park for an extended period, the subscription options below can be far more economical than paying day by day.
Citizen Car Park subscription fees
- Monthly subscription: 9,000 TL
- 6-month subscription: 36,000 TL
- Yearly subscription: 72,000 TL
Subscriptions are usually arranged at the payment points after entering the car park.
Tourism Car Park prices (2026)
Entirely separate from the Citizen Car Park, the Tourism Car Park is subject to a different tariff designed for long-term and frequent use. The 2026 price list announced by Selene Ticaret Ltd is as follows:
- Single pass (passenger drop-off / pick-up): 15 Euros
- Daily parking: 25 Euros
- Monthly subscription: 250 Euros
- Yearly subscription: 3,000 Euros
First 15 minutes free: drop-off and pick-up
The first 15 minutes in the Citizen Car Park are free of charge. This allowance is a great convenience for anyone coming to see someone off or pick them up. If you exit the car park within 15 minutes, you pay nothing. If you are only dropping off or picking up passengers, this free window will usually be more than enough.
Where can I find the current, exact prices?
There is no official website that publishes the Ercan Airport parking tariff; since the car parks are run by private operators, prices are updated from time to time. You can get the most accurate and up-to-date information from the following sources:
- The electronic board at the car park entrance – the current price list for the Citizen Car Park is displayed here.
- Staff at the payment points – the clearest information on tariffs and subscriptions is available here.
- Airport information line: +90 (392) 600 5000

Private parking options outside the airport
As an alternative to the car parks inside the airport, private car parks located close to the terminal generally offer more economical daily rates along with an airport transfer (shuttle) service. For example, Ayaz Car Park, one of these private operators, publishes its prices in Euros: open-air parking starts from €8 per day (€7 for 15 days or more), parking with a car cover from €9 per day, and covered garage parking from €20 per day. Its reservation system may also add a €15 round-trip transfer fee and a late-hour charge of €20 per direction between 21:30 and 06:30.
These private car parks can be particularly advantageous for long-term parking; however, since reservation terms and transfer fees vary by operator, it is worth confirming the total amount before you pay.
Getting to the airport without your car
For travellers who prefer not to pay for parking or bring their own car, public transport is a practical solution.

Things to keep in mind when using the car park
- Pay attention to which car park you enter; the Citizen Car Park and the Tourism Car Park have different tariffs.
- Follow the parking signs as you approach the terminal; you can reach both the arrivals and departures levels from the car park.
- Payment is usually made at the exit; check card and cash options in advance.
- If you will be staying for a long time, calculate whether a subscription is more economical than paying the daily rate.
- The car park can fill up during busy holiday periods, so it is a good idea to arrive at the airport a little early.
