Cheap flights from Birmingham to Dalaman

On the Turquoise Coast, the swimming season stretches from late spring well into autumn, with July and August the hottest and the busiest months. October is the cheapest month on this route: the sea is still warm, the crowds thin out, and fares drop once the UK school holidays end. Winter is mild but quiet, and the price calendar on this page covers October through August, so you can see how fares move across the whole season before you commit.

What the fare includes is where these airlines differ most. Easyjet, Jet2, Sun Express, Pegasus and Eurowings sell low-cost tickets where checked baggage and sometimes cabin bags are extras you add at booking, so a low headline fare can grow once you add a suitcase. TUI Airways packages flights with a holiday luggage allowance as standard. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Turkish Airlines, Lufthansa and Aer Lingus are full-service and connect through their hubs in Amsterdam, Istanbul, Frankfurt or Dublin, which costs time but often includes baggage and better flexibility in the base fare.

You land at Dalaman Airport, which sits inland from the resort towns rather than in the middle of one. Since most arrivals are bound for places like Marmaris, Fethiye or the smaller coastal villages, the usual way onward is a shuttle, a pre-booked transfer or a taxi rather than a city bus. Check where your final destination actually is before you book, because journey times from the airport vary a lot between resorts, and a late-evening landing can mean a long transfer in the dark.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Confirm you are departing from Birmingham Airport and not a London airport, since some search results mix them.
• Check whether checked baggage is included or an add-on if you fly with one of the low-cost carriers.
• Compare direct flights against connecting options on separate tickets, and check the transfer time if the two legs are ticketed apart.
• Look into entry requirements for Turkey, including passport validity, before you pay.
• If you are travelling in the school summer holidays, expect fares in the calendar to peak and consider October instead.
