Tips for 1¾ hr Connections
There is no dedicated transfer desk, so you'll collect any checked bag information from your airline rather than expect automated transfer handling.
If arriving from a non-Schengen flight like a UK route, budget extra time to clear passport control before heading to departures.
The terminal is tiny — once through security you're essentially at your gate, so the walking distance is never the bottleneck, staffing and queue length are.
Summer charter season (June–September) brings sudden waves of holiday traffic that can overwhelm the single check-in and security area.
Confirm your onward flight's check-in cutoff carefully, as Brindisi has limited self-service kiosks and check-in can be slow during peak periods.
Busyness — Connection Risk

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
Getting Between Concourses
There is only one small terminal building, so all connecting passengers simply walk from the arrival gate area to the departure/security area on foot. There are no airside trains, shuttles, or terminal transfers, and passengers arriving from non-Schengen flights (e.g. UK) must clear passport control before rejoining the single departures area.
