Terminal Information – Departing

This is only a guideline. Always check your boarding pass for up-to-date terminal information.

Newcastle Airport only has one terminal. There are plenty of shops, including two selling duty free goodies: World Duty Free and Cuba Lily. Other stores include JD Sports, WH Smith, Boots and Accessorize. There's a Namco Games arcade for a bit of fun before you fly and an Aerospa if you want to treat yourself. Dining options include quick options like Greggs and Upper Crust as well as traditional diners like the Flying Hippo Cafe and Cabin. There's an M&S Food to Go, if you need to pick up a meal to enjoy on-board the flight. For an extra treat you can check into the Aspire (or Aspire Plus) Lounge. Access is available to all classes of passengers on all airlines. The lounges both have a complimentary selection of food and drink as well as high speed Wi-Fi, but the Plus offering is slightly more premium. Speaking of Wi-Fi, you can connect to the internet for free throughout the terminal.

If you do land at terminal 2, you can take the free shuttle across to terminal 1.  There's an express train straight from the airport to Milano Cadorna and Milano Centrale stations. Frequent busses are also available between the airport and the city. Taxis are expensive, with a fixed rate of €90*.
