Getting to Mersin University
From Çukurova International Airport (COV): The airport offers direct flights from various European cities. HAVAMAŞ shuttles depart every hour to the city center, stopping at Forum Shopping Mall and Sayapark Shopping Mall. We recommend getting off at Sayapark, as it is much closer to the university. From there, you can take a public bus, a minibus (dolmuş), or a taxi directly to the campus.
From the Intercity Bus Terminal (Otogar): Regular bus services to the campus are available via Bus Line 77. Alternatively, taking a taxi is a much faster and more convenient option.
