Terminal Information
Birmingham Airport
There’s just one terminal at Birmingham Airport so it’s easy to find your way around. Passengers are advised to arrive at the airport 90 minutes before their scheduled flight departure time. This leaves plenty of time to pass through security and travel to your gate. If you are travelling with Ryanair you will need to check-in in advance but all other airlines offer both online check in and check in at the airport.
If you want to speed up your journey through security, you can purchase a priority pass for £3.00. These are available online in advance or from machines outside the security area. While you may still need to queue for a short time, you’ll be through to the departures lounge much more quickly.
In the departures lounge, there is a currency exchange, a duty free store and lots of high street shops including WHSmith, Boots, Dixons, Hugo Boss, Pandora and Victoria’s Secret. If you’re looking for something to eat, you can grab a quick bite from eateries like Burger King or Pret A Manger, or sit down for something more substantial at Frankie & Bennie’s or Giraffe.
