Prices at Antalya airport
When heading for a vacation in this popular resort, it's worth arming yourself with patience and taking a well-stocked wallet. Tourists also shared the prices at the besieged airport. "You'll need a mortgage to buy anything. (...) Prices are crazy! $22 for a piece of pizza," reports one of the video authors.
But that's not all. Pringles chips cost €6.50 ($7), a frozen coffee costs $9-10, and the same goes for a chicken sandwich. Salads are similarly priced. However, it's worth noting that the portions are large, and no ingredients were spared when preparing meals for tourists.
