Booking flights to Antalya — the answers that matter

How much is a return flight to Antalya from the UK?

Direct answer. Return flights to Antalya start at around £33, the lowest recent fare on the London Gatwick–Antalya route. Across the 12 UK departures with current fare data, average returns run £86–£142.

These figures come from recent Travelpayouts search data, not estimates. The spread between departure airports matters: the same week can price very differently from London Gatwick, London Luton and Glasgow, so it pays to compare more than one departure.

The maths to run. On the London Gatwick route, anything at £62 or under sits in the cheapest quarter of recent fares. Against the £95 route average that keeps £33 per return in your pocket — £132 across four travellers.

Key fact: A return to Antalya at £62 or less counts as a genuinely good deal — that's the cheapest 25% of recent fares on the London Gatwick route.
