How early should you arrive at Antalya Airport?

For an international flight, arrive at least two and a half to three hours before scheduled departure. In the peak summer months the queues at security and passport control are the part that grows.

How early for a domestic flight?

For flights within Turkey, one and a half to two hours before departure is generally enough.

Is there a security check at the terminal entrance?

Yes. Antalya Airport screens passengers at the terminal entrance, before you reach the check-in desks, so there is a queue to account for before the usual one.
