AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Most flights, including all international services, operate from Terminal 2, which has separate domestic and international processing wings connected by a short walk within the same building. Passengers connecting from T1 to T2 (or vice versa) need the free inter-terminal shuttle bus, which takes 10-15 minutes plus waiting time. International arrivals connecting onward must clear immigration, collect and recheck bags, and pass security again before reaching the domestic or international departure zones.
