Accessible airport transfer in Kuşadası is a service we run as a specialty, not a side note. Standard taxis at ADB do not handle wheelchairs — the cabin is too tight, there is no ramp, and drivers are not trained. We run a single dedicated low-floor Volkswagen Caravelle with a rear hydraulic ramp, four-point wheelchair tie-down system, and a driver experienced with mobility-impaired passengers.
**What is in the accessible van:**
• Rear hydraulic ramp (600 kg capacity, 1.5 m wide) • Four-point Q-Straint tie-down for the wheelchair • Q-Straint lap-belt for the passenger • Two regular fold-out seats for companions • Space for one folding wheelchair + walker + cabin luggage • A/C • English-speaking driver, 5+ years experience with accessible runs
**Booking:** 48 hours advance notice strongly preferred (the van is single-unit, often pre-booked). Email [email protected] or WhatsApp +90 532 407 7712 with: passenger weight if known (relevant for the ramp), wheelchair type (manual / electric), number of companions, pickup point, drop-off, time, and any specific needs.
**Flat price €45 for Kuşadası ↔ ADB — same both ways, no surcharge for the accessible van.** Cash on arrival, EUR/USD/TL accepted. We can also arrange transfers to local hospitals (Universal Hastanesi, Acıbadem Aydın), to cruise terminal for accessible boarding, and to nearby villages with mobility-friendly accommodation (Şirince — narrow streets, limited).
**Driver training:** the assigned driver completed a 2-day course with the Aydın province social services on accessible transport. He knows how to secure a wheelchair, when to ask before assisting, and how to communicate clearly with passengers using sign or alternate communication.
Frequently asked
Can you handle electric wheelchairs?
Yes — up to 200 kg (chair + passenger combined) including standard electric models. Tell us the model in advance so we can check the wheel-base fits the tie-down rails.
How early should I book?
48 hours preferred — the accessible van is single-unit. For high-season July-August or cruise port days, 1 week ahead is safer.
Does ADB have wheelchair assistance on arrival?
Yes — ADB has assistance staff who can meet you at the gate and bring you to baggage claim if pre-arranged with the airline. Our driver meets you at Gate B once you exit baggage claim.
