Eppley Airfield is a small, single-terminal airport that functions primarily as an origin-and-destination point rather than a true connecting hub. Because no airline maintains a hub here, true same-plane or tight connections are rare, but the airport's compact layout makes any connection that does occur very easy to manage. OMA has a single terminal building with two short concourses branching off a central security checkpoint and shared ticketing/baggage area. All gates are reachable on foot in a few minutes with no trains, shuttles, or airside buses required.
