Scooters, motorbikes, bicycles, e-bikes and cargo bikes are common methods of transportation on base.

Things to Know

  • Personally Owned Vehicle (POV) shipments are not currently authorized for members stationed at Incirlik.

  • The 39th Logistics provides transportation to and from the Adana Airport for official travel.

  • A 24-hour bus is available every 30 minutes, clockwise and counter-clockwise around the base. Call the shuttle bus for pick up at 676-6756.

  • It is also highly encouraged that members bring (in their HHG) or purchase bicycles (from the BX) for personal transportation.

LICENSE & REGISTRATION

Only a valid stateside driver’s license is needed to drive your vehicle. No other local or international licenses are required to drive on base. If your license expires while in Türkiye, go to the Legal Office to file for an extension. Call the Pass and ID Office ahead of time to ensure you’re bringing all necessary documents. It is recommended to have car insurance that covers rentals overseas before you drive a rented vehicle.

MOTORCYCLES

Motorbikes, e-bikes and bicycles can be purchased new or used at the Auto Hobby Shop in Bldg. 1060 (DSN 676-6655), from vendors next to the Base Exchange or on a Facebook group called Incirlik Scooter Mart 2.0. Please check in with either the base Safety Office or your command’s motorcycle safety representative after arrival to attend a class on motorbike safety. A helmet and closed-toed shoes are required.

FUELING YOUR TRANSPORTATION

There is a shoppette with a two-pump gas station, and it is open every day from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. Some of the dorms offer parking areas for electric scooters with charging capabilities.
