Terminal Guide for Bremen Airport #

The airport uses a single compact terminal that handles arrivals and departures in one building; check‑in is on the landside level with security screening leading to a single airside concourse where gates, shops and cafés are clustered. Facilities are within short walking distance once airside.

Because there is only one terminal, transfers are by foot - everything is in the same building and walk times between check‑in, security and gates are short.
