Terminals / concourses: Terminal 1, Terminal 2

Getting between them: Walking; from the entrance to the furthest gate in well under 15 minutes

Only Terminal 2 is used by passengers: the old Terminal 1 no longer handles flights and is due to be demolished. Departure gates are split between Schengen and non-Schengen flights behind one central security checkpoint.

  • On one ticket with bags checked through, 60 to 90 minutes is comfortable.
  • On separate tickets you collect bags, check in again and go through security: allow 2.5 to 3 hours.

Estimate based on typical times at this airport, not your airline's official minimum connection time. Immigration and security lines change with the time of day and season. On a single ticket, the airline must rebook you if you miss the connection; on separate tickets, it does not.
