History

DLM was started building in 1976, opened in 1981 as an aerodrome. In 1989, it was promoted to airport status. Its layout were established in about 6.15 million m² of area.

The new Dalaman International Terminal cost approximately $150,000,000 to complete and is the third largest terminal building in Turkey. There are 12 boarding gates, 8 with covered airbridges. The apron was also re-designed, increasing space for remote stands. Consequently, the airport has capacity to handle up to 35 flights at any one time. In total, the terminal now has a floor space of 95,000m2, compared with less than 45,000m2 prior to refurbishment. Check-in and departures are based on the upper two levels, with arrivals using the lower two levels. The old Terminal is still in use operated as the domestic terminal.

Ground Transport

Shuttle services are available to Marmaris or Fethiye and Menteşe (central district of Muğla) along Marmaris and Fethiye. Services from airport are mostly depended to arrival of flights. Parking facilities are available for up to 550 vehicles outside the terminal building.
