Tips for 45 min Connections
Landvetter is small enough that a 40-minute connection is usually comfortable if you're staying within the same passport-control zone.
Passport control between Schengen and non-Schengen flights (e.g. to/from the UK) can add unexpected time, especially around peak morning and evening banks.
There are few flight options at GOT, so missed connections often mean waiting for the next scheduled departure rather than quick rebooking onto an alternate flight.
Signage is straightforward and distances short, so you rarely need to rush physically — the real risk is schedule buffer, not terminal navigation.
If arriving on a delayed short-haul flight, head straight for passport control if your onward flight is in a different Schengen zone.

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
All gates are within one compact terminal building, so transfers are done entirely on foot along a single level. Passengers connecting between a Schengen and a non-Schengen flight must pass through passport control and sometimes a secondary security check, adding the only real friction to an otherwise fast walk.
