27 February / Gülser Yiğit
Passengers Traveling Between Alanya and Antalya React to 50% Bus Fare Increase.
The ticket prices, which were previously 200 TL, have now risen to 295 TL, sparking public outrage.
Passengers expressed their frustration over the rising cost of living: "Everything is increasing by more than 50%, but our salaries are not growing at the same rate. This puts us in a difficult position," they complained.
Additionally, travelers noted that fares from Antalya to Mahmutlar have increased from 295 TL to 320 TL: "If you travel further, they charge extra, but if you go a shorter distance, they don’t lower the price. In areas like Avsallar and Türkler, ticket prices never drop below 295 TL," citizens protested.
