Advantages: Airconditioned, clean, good toilets, small

Disadvantages: Expensive food, charge for baggage trolleys

I have just recently (very recently, still got a tan) arrived back from Dalaman airport, Turkey. In my opinion the airport was absolutely fine and had everything i required. When arriving from the UK getting a visa was quick and easy (although you do have to pay £10 for entry into the country) The toilets were kept very clean and our baggage was already going round the belt by the time we got down the escalators. On the return journey, you can browse round duty free...they have more brands of cigarettes and perfume than in the supermarkets of Turkey (and obviously are cheaper still), the whole place was very clean and it was air conditioned. There was quite a queue for check in but they had 3 desks open....so not sure what else they could have done. As with many airports if you want to buy food it is pricey so i would highly recommend taking some bits with you. There isn't really any need for a baggage trolley (they cost) and check in is only 50 metres from the entrance! Overall a perfectly adequate airport...you are in Turkey...what more can you expect?!

Summary: It does the job - far easier than somewhere like Gatwick!
