Can I make a 1½ hours connection at ADB on an international flight?
1½ hours clears the 60-minute international minimum connection time at Adnan Menderes, but you should still head directly to your gate. There is a single terminal building with domestic and international sections connected by a shared central concourse, so all transfers are on foot. Passengers moving from domestic to international (or vice versa) pass through passport control and a security re-screening point; purely domestic-to-domestic transfers usually just require a walk through the terminal without re-clearing security if already airside.

We recommend at least 50 minutes for a comfortable connection at Adnan Menderes. This gives you enough buffer for security (typically 15 minutes) and transit between terminals (up to 15 minutes).
What happens if I miss my connection at ADB?
If you miss a connection, head to your airline's transfer desk or ticket counter in the terminal — Turkish Airlines, Pegasus, and SunExpress all have staffed counters — as ADB has limited late-night rebooking options and fewer daily frequencies than major Turkish hubs like Istanbul.
