Arriving in Konya
Konya Airport (KYA) is about 20 km from the city, with airport shuttle buses and taxis into town. Many visitors arrive by high-speed train (YHT), around two hours from Ankara or about four and a half from Istanbul.
Data tip: turn on AloOui as you land or step off the train, and book your next YHT ticket on your phone, as popular trains sell out.
