Arrival
A busy thriving airport today is dependent on efficient arrival facilities, speedy custom-check formalities, and easy baggage collection. All of these have been included at Jinnah Terminal, in both domestic and international terminals.

Travelers are handled at varying structure levels in the Terminal Building and the layout is appealing and attractive, designed to avoid confusion and crowding.

Transit Flight Passengers are accommodated at individual flight counters, specified clearly for added convenience and ease in Passenger Baggage Handling.

Departure
Departing from any airport in the world means a flurry of activity, which is heightened because of strict airline schedules.
Jinnah Terminal has been constructed with a view to meeting the demands of airlines and passengers alike with enhanced convenience and efficiency.

It has 86 counters in a spacious and aesthetically-laid Check in Hall supplied with modern equipment to handle passengers speedily and efficiently.

The Sattellites
The terminal building is linked via connecting corridors to satellites, each having a provision of eight passenger-loading bridges.

The eastern satellite is devoted exclusively to handling international operations, whereas the western satellite takes on domestic operations, as well as some international operations. This is achieved through a flexible arrangement of gates.

The two satellites supplement the departure lounges of the Terminal Building and also provide shopping facilities and snack counters.
