By public transport during the day
There is no single daytime bus or train from the airport to the Otogar. You can combine the İZBAN train with the metro and a city bus, but routes change, so check the current connection with ESHOT or İzmir Metro before you set off — and allow plenty of time if you have a coach to catch. With heavy bags or a tight connection, a taxi is far simpler.
Coaches from the Otogar
From İzmir Otogar, intercity coaches run to cities all over Türkiye, and regional buses serve towns around the province and the Aegean coast — useful for destinations without a HAVAŞ line, such as Bergama, Dikili or Ayvalık. Buy tickets at the company offices in the station or online, and check where your coach leaves from.
If your final destination is a resort such as Kuşadası, Çeşme or Didim, a direct HAVAŞ bus or transfer from the airport usually saves a trip across the city.
