Transfer at Aberdeen Airport

At Aberdeen Airport, passengers of all airlines will only use one terminal. The building is small and very clear.

It takes no more than 15 minutes to go through security in the morning departure rush hour, and you can walk through the whole airport in 3 minutes.

Getting around the airport is easy. The central security checkpoint leads to all departure gates.

Transfer between flights

You won't use Aberdeen Airport for connecting flights very often, as no major network airlines are based here.

If you are connecting between two domestic flights, you can use a special corridor for transiting passengers without leaving the transit zone. In this case, there is no security check and your baggage can be checked through to your final destination.

When arriving from an international destination, you must always go through passport control, exit to the public area and go through security to the departure gate.
