AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Getting Between Concourses
There is a single terminal building with domestic and international sections connected by a shared central concourse, so all transfers are on foot. Passengers moving from domestic to international (or vice versa) pass through passport control and a security re-screening point; purely domestic-to-domestic transfers usually just require a walk through the terminal without re-clearing security if already airside.
