AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Getting Between Concourses
All operations run through one terminal building, so 'connecting' simply means walking from one gate pier to another, typically 5-12 minutes depending on gate assignment. Passengers moving between a Schengen flight and a non-Schengen flight (e.g., to the UK or Ukraine) must pass through a passport control checkpoint located in the central terminal area, adding several minutes versus a purely Schengen-to-Schengen transfer.
