Kars Airport (IATA: KSY) is a small regional airport serving Kars province in northeastern Turkey, originally opened in the late 1980s and operating with a single terminal that handles domestic traffic and seasonal charters. Important for visitors heading to the historic Ani ruins and nearby Sarıkamış ski area, KSY is a compact, easy-to-navigate facility rather than a major international hub. It’s well connected to Kars city by a short 10–20 minute drive with taxis and shuttle buses, and offers regular flights to Istanbul and Ankara with additional seasonal services. Fares are generally more affordable than larger Turkish hubs, and the airport is regularly served by Turkish Airlines/AnadoluJet and low-cost carriers on regional routes.
Small and straightforward: you’ll find two bank ATMs landside but no exchange desk. For better rates, take out a little cash for transport, then change or withdraw more in Kars city center where USD, EUR, and GBP are readily handled.
Duty‑free at Kars Harakani Airport is a modest, flight‑dependent affair: a small counter opens airside only when international services operate. Expect a slim but useful mix of spirits, fragrances, and chocolates at prices that usually beat city shops, with wider selections available at bigger hubs like Istanbul or Ankara.
Small and straightforward, the airport offers a couple of cafés for quick Turkish staples—think coffee, simit, and sandwiches—one before security and one in the departure lounge. Expect airport markups of about 20–40% versus town; if you spot a gravyer‑cheese toast, it’s a tasty local pick.
Feeling unwell before or after your flight? The on-duty first-aid team helps near Arrivals during flight hours (free), kiosks carry basics, and full pharmacies in Kars are a quick taxi ride away.
Compact and straightforward, Kars Airport doesn’t offer self‑service lockers, but planning is easy: ask staff about short same‑day holds and use dependable city options like hotels or the bus station. Here’s where to go, what it costs, and how to store everything from carry‑ons to ski bags safely.
Settle into comfortable gate seating with free Wi‑Fi, or opt for the small CIP lounge in Departures for tea, snacks, and a calmer vibe. Kars Airport isn’t 24‑hour, but there are quiet corners to unwind, with lounge access via eligible tickets or occasional paid entry when available.
