What AYT to EMA looks like
The AYT to EMA sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Antalya AYT to Derby and Nottingham EMA is a medium haul sector of 3,050 km by great circle, flown nonstop about once a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 3,050 km, 880 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 4h 10m.
Antalya AYT is a major hub in the network held here, 182 scheduled destinations and 518.9 departures a day. Derby and Nottingham EMA has 91 destinations and 74.6 departures a day.
Antalya carries about 7 times the departures of Derby and Nottingham, so a courier who has to be rebooked has far more to work with at one end of this pair than at the other.
Derby and Nottingham runs 3 hours behind of Antalya in January and 2 hours behind in July, because the two ends do not change their clocks together.
The pair sits inside Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 14 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on AYT to EMA from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| AYT to EMA | 1.29 | 9 | Jet2, TUI Airways |
| EMA to AYT | 1 | 7 | Jet2, TUI Airways |
Two carriers hold the sector, Jet2 and TUI Airways, which gives a missed departure somewhere to go without leaving the nonstop.
Between them the two directions put about 16 departures a week on AYT to EMA, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.

When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 22 of them join AYT to EMA.
| Connecting at | AYT to hub, flights a day | Hub to EMA, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wroclaw WRO | 4 | 1 | 3,184 | 6h 04m |
| Cologne CGN | 13.36 | 1.86 | 3,053 | 6h 16m |
| Krakow KRK | 2.57 | 0.86 | 3,199 | 6h 20m |
| London STN | 2.29 | 0.57 | 3,060 | 6h 26m |
| Paris CDG | 0.86 | 1.29 | 3,146 | 6h 37m |
| Copenhagen CPH | 2.29 | 0.71 | 3,447 | 6h 39m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at AYT in the afternoon actually flies on.
22 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Wroclaw WRO, where the weaker of the two legs still runs about once a day.
Through WRO the routing covers 3,184 km against the 3,050 km nonstop track and takes about 6h 04m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 54m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Cologne CGN at 6h 16m and Krakow KRK at 6h 20m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Antalya, Rhodes RHO is 248 km away by great circle and carries 117 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
If nothing suitable leaves Derby and Nottingham, Birmingham BHX is 51 km away by great circle and carries 139 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for AYT to EMA in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
