Terminals at Geneva Airport

An airport terminal is a structure where passengers move from ground transportation to the facilities that enable them to board planes and have Geneva airport arrivals. Passengers buy tickets, switch their luggage, and go through security in the terminal. Concourses are the structures that allow passengers to enter or leave planes when having GVA arrivals (via gates). However, depending on the airport’s layout, the words “terminal” and “concourse” are also used interchangeably. Larger airports have several terminals or concourses, while smaller airports have only one. A single terminal building performs all of the purposes in small airports.

Geneva airport has two terminals for Geneva arrivals, the larger Terminal 1 and the smaller terminal 2. The larger terminal is the newer terminal that features the majority of flights. The smaller terminal, is used seasonally, and it has a Business Aviation Terminal, known as Terminal 3.

Terminal 1

Terminal 1 is divided into 5 main terminals called A, B, C, D, and F. Passengers traveling from gates A, B, C, D can check-in at the main check-in hall and can use the central security check above the security hall.

Terminal A is situated in front of the main shopping area and serves Schengen area destinations.
Terminal B hosts passport control and servers two non-Schengen Satellite buildings. Terminal C is situated to the right of Terminal A and hosts long-haul GVA airport arrivals using wide-body aircraft.
Terminal C has one bus gate building, which is split between Schengen and non- Schengen passengers.

Terminal 2

This terminal was the original terminal until 1960. After terminal 2 was built, the facilities in terminal 1 were poor. Passengers used terminal 2 for security check, and then take a low floor bus to terminals A, B, C, and D at Terminal 1. Passengers are taken directly to terminal 2 and passport verification after Geneva flight arrivals.

Runways

Geneva International Airport has a single runway, which is the longest runway in Switzerland. The length of the runway is 3900 m which is why GVA arrivals are possible for the bigger airplanes.

Geneva Airport ground transportation

Train

The airport is 4 km from the city center. There are Geneva airport arrivals at the railway station from Geneva-Cornavin Station.

Bus

The airport has local buses that have Geneva arrivals. There are also buses to and from Annecy, France, and seasonal buses to Chamonix, France, and other ski resorts in Switzerland. During the winter, several transfer companies provide shared transfers to a variety of French ski resorts. Hundreds of coaches gather at the nearby Charter terminal on weekends to meet charter flights from all over Europe, but mainly arrivals from the United Kingdom. Holidaymakers use these to travel to and from ski resorts in France, Switzerland, and Italy. The buses generally depart from the Swiss market, which reduces the driving distance to the majority of destinations.

After reaching the last gate of the Airline, just wait in the boarding area for some time. If your boarding pass has been checked, you will be able to board the plane. Then take a seat and unwind.
