A Çukurova Airport to Askar Port Hotel by Continent transfer runs to one of the westernmost points on the Mersin coast. The car passes Mersin, Erdemli, Kızkalesi and Silifke, enters Taşucu and stops outside the hotel on Street 193. This page is written mainly for travellers flying in and carrying on by ferry to Northern Cyprus, or doing the trip the other way round.
Landing with a Ferry to Catch
In the arrivals hall a sign with your name will be waiting. With your flight number in the booking, we track the flight and move the pickup if it lands late. That matters if your ferry timing is tight. But the sensible plan is to put a night in Taşucu between flight and ferry.
Trying to make a same-day sailing leaves you dependent on both flight delays and road conditions. We follow your flight; the ferry follows its own timetable. Keeping the two apart is the stress-free option.
Towards the Western End of the Coast
The car leaves the airport heading west on the wide roads around Mersin. Past the city the coastal road begins, running through Erdemli, Kızkalesi, Narlıkuyu and Atakent. This stretch winds around coves with the sea alongside.
At Silifke the car crosses the Göksu River and reaches Taşucu after a short drive. Inside the town it turns into the streets towards the harbour and stops outside the hotel on Street 193. For the hotel's position relative to the port and trips from Taşucu, see our Askar Port Hotel by Continent page.
Light Bags or Heavy: Choosing the Car
Luggage near a ferry port varies with the trip. A couple off to Cyprus for a few days carries one case; a family moving house carries boxes. Your options:
- Solo traveller or couple with light luggage: Business Sedan or Comfort Class
- Anyone wanting a quieter, roomier cabin: Premium Sedan
- Families or heavy luggage: VIP Vito or the eight-seat Mercedes Vito
- A group crossing to Cyprus together: Mercedes Sprinter
Child seats can be added as an extra. Prices are per vehicle.
From Taşucu Back to the Airport
The return leg matters most for travellers arriving from Cyprus by ferry and then flying out. Ferries can run late and sea conditions change. Rather than landing off the ferry and flying the same day, staying a night in Taşucu and heading to the airport in the morning is the safer plan.
No separate booking is needed for the return. Use “Add return” in the booking form to add the hotel-to-airport leg. Work the pickup time back from your flight, allowing for the length of the coastal road and summer weekend traffic. To start, select Çukurova Airport and Askar Port Hotel by Continent in the form.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I go straight from the airport to Taşucu harbour?
Yes, you can book a point-to-point transfer from the airport to Taşucu harbour. If the gap between your flight and the ferry is tight, though, we suggest a night in Taşucu to guard against delays. In that case, book one transfer from the airport to the hotel and another from the hotel to the port the next day.
Which route does the car take to Taşucu?
From the airport the car heads west onto the wide roads around Mersin, then follows the coastal road through Erdemli, Kızkalesi, Narlıkuyu and Atakent to Silifke. After Silifke a short road leads into Taşucu, and the car stops outside the hotel on Street 193 near the harbour area.
Can I arrive by ferry from Cyprus and fly the same day?
It is possible in theory, but ferry timetables and sea conditions can change, so it is a risky plan. Staying in Taşucu on the day you arrive by ferry and going to the airport the next morning is far more relaxed. Book the hotel-to-airport transfer by working back from your flight time.
What if my dates change?
Open the My Reservation page on our site to view your booking and send a change request. When your flight or ferry plans change, send the request as early as possible and include your new flight number. With an up-to-date flight number, any delay automatically moves the pickup to the actual landing time.
