Duty free question
Hello, I'm flying to Turkey, and indeed, for the first time. Please tell me who knows how much you can buy goods in Duty Free, so that they let you on the plane. I understand that it will have to be carried in hand luggage? How are hand luggage checked before boarding the plane and upon arrival, both in Boryspil and in Antalya? For example, if I buy several bottles of alcohol in Duty Free, this will be included in the allowed weight of hand luggage, i.e. 7 kg. Thanks in advance for your reply.

I don’t know how it is in Boryspil, but there shouldn’t be any problems due to several bottles (unless, of course, you are going to stock up there with a box). Alcohol purchased in a dutik is not subject to the liquid allowance, as well as the weight of hand luggage, i.e. you can safely take your legal kg (in general, no one weighs hand luggage) + packages from duty free. By quantity, you can 1 liter of strong and 2 liters of weak alcohol.

I don’t know how about “you can have 1 liter of strong and 2 liters of weak alcohol”, but I constantly watch how companies of young people fill the cart with strong alcohol right up to the top!!! Then this huge pile of packages is carried on the plane - and no calculations and no problems!

Polik, it's clear that more is possible. I answered as "officially", but in fact, of course, people are more lucky. They close their eyes to this. It's just that if one person picks up a huge cart, then this will arouse suspicion and you can run into. Conclusion: you need to know the measure :)

In Kyiv, buy as much as you want. nobody weighs. Once you pass passport control, there will be no more controls. in the tourist cities of Turkey, upon arrival, I also never saw that they would look into bags or check luggage.
You can also buy on arrival.
Borispol advice - there is a small duty free near gates B1, not opposite the gates, just near - and so alcohol is cheaper there, since the owners of this duty free are not Irish, like the central duty free.

Goods in Duty Free Antalya will be sold to you (they will beat off at the checkout) by asking you to present your boarding pass. At any airport there is a certain limit of goods per passenger (I have never seen anyone asked to remove the contents, and none of the passengers collected 10 bottles in one hand!) Everything that a passenger buys in duty free is packed in a special a package (however, this package remains open in Antalya) - you take it with you into the cabin of the aircraft (you can put it on the shelf of hand luggage, but according to safety rules, it is better to put bottles under the seat in front of the seated passenger). The prices in the Antalya deutik are in euros and are overpriced in relation to many other countries.

bileg, you didn’t see that "none of the passengers scored 10 bottles in one hand!" I saw it in May, I thought it was some Turkish bar or nightclub stocking up. But, what was my surprise when a company of 4 young people (2 of them girls) with this cart of whiskey, vodka, champagne, etc. loaded into our bus and unloaded at the Ring Beach Hotel.

sandra - after passport control, there is still control before the boarding gate itself.

which? only the boarding check is checked, not a scanner, not a metal detector there. they don't even look at their passports. the ticket is scanned, I tear it off and that's it

Our dear, damn it, a mess, since 1.09 they have been dividing the area, issuing some kind of permission, the tender is crap shorter, and the tourist, as usual, is extreme. I will not give links, there are a lot of messages in the news feeds.
