Brno–Tuřany Airport (BRQ)

Brno–Tuřany Airport (BRQ) features a distinctive, modern terminal design characterized by its futuristic, rounded architecture. The terminal is compact and divided into two main sections: the Departure Hall (opened in 2006) and the Arrivals area. Due to its small size, the airport is extremely easy to navigate, with walking times from the entrance to the boarding gates rarely exceeding 5 minutes. The layout minimizes stress, placing check-in counters, security, and the departures lounge in close proximity. Security procedures at Brno are efficient and typically quick, though peak holiday seasons can see slight queues. Passengers pass through a central security checkpoint to access the airside departure zone. Immigration control is situated conveniently for non-Schengen flights, with passport control booths located just before the relevant boarding gates or upon arrival. Customs processing is straightforward, with a standard Red/Green channel system in the arrivals hall. In terms of amenities, the public landside area offers basic services including an information kiosk, car rental desks, ATMs, and a dining option serving meals and drinks. Once past security (airside), facilities include a duty-free shop for last-minute purchases and a bistro offering light snacks and beverages. For travelers seeking more comfort, there is a Business Lounge available in the departure area, providing a quieter space to wait. Free Wi-Fi is accessible throughout the terminal under the network name "AIRPORT". The airport is fully accessible for passengers with reduced mobility, complying with EU standards for PRM assistance.
