AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Getting Between Concourses
The domestic and international sections sit within the same integrated terminal building, connected by a long internal concourse walkway. International arriving passengers must clear immigration and customs before any onward connection, and international departures require a separate security and document check area, so there is no true 'sterile corridor' shortcut between the two sides.
