Samsun Transfer
VIP transfer from Çukurova Airport to Samsun: a group-friendly long ride in one vehicle for school trips, birdwatching and port visits.
Transfer to Samsun
Reaching the Black Sea coast in a single vehicle
Samsun is known as the city where Atatürk set foot in Anatolia on 19 May 1919, and for the Bandırma Vapuru Museum. Birdwatching in the Kızılırmak Delta, the Atakum seafront and the farmland of Bafra and Çarşamba also stand out. Samsun-Çarşamba Airport has many connections and most visitors use it. Going from Çukurova by road is a very long trip and an option only for those who want to travel together in one vehicle for group, family or business reasons.
Ground transport from the airport to Samsun
- Door-to-door by private car: the trip ends exactly where you tell us in Samsun, and the driver handles the luggage.
- Via the bus station: reaching Samsun means first arriving in Adana or Mersin and then hunting for a coach ticket, which is tiring after a late landing.
- Taxi and car hire: taxis queue outside the terminal, though on a trip as long as Samsun the metered fare depends on road and traffic. Hiring a car for Samsun means a long drive after a flight.
Why wait for a timetable when Samsun has a direct option?
After landing you do not have to wait for a shuttle to leave for Samsun. With a timetabled service such as Havamaş you fit your plans to the departure; with a VIP transfer the car fits itself to you and your trip to Samsun.

| Pick-up and drop-off | Fixed stops; no door-to-door | Door to door; stops and breaks on request |
| Waiting and delays | Timetable stays the same whatever the flight | Adjusts to delays or early landings |
| Luggage | You carry your own bags | Driver carries and loads the bags |
| Comfort and privacy | Crowded, shared use | A private car for your party only |
| Pricing | Per-person ticket | Fixed price per vehicle, good value for groups |
