Yangon International Airport (RGN)

Yangon International spreads operations across three terminals along the same access road. Terminals 1 and 2 handle most international flights and sit a short walk apart, while Terminal 3 at the northern end is dedicated to domestic services. Each building has its own check-in hall, immigration, and baggage claim. Walking between T1 and T2 takes roughly 5 minutes under covered sidewalks; reaching T3 from T2 is closer to 8–10 minutes on foot, and golf-cart style shuttles run along the curb during busy periods. Airside connectivity between terminals is not provided, so transfers require exiting and re-clearing. Security and outbound immigration occur immediately after check-in. International terminals use dual-lane screening with separate diplomatic/crew channels, and queues typically fluctuate between 10–20 minutes outside the evening long-haul banks. Domestic screening in T3 is usually lighter but can back up around early-morning departures to Mandalay and Nay Pyi Taw. Passengers connecting from domestic to international flights should budget extra time to re-clear immigration after walking over to T1 or T2. Arriving international passengers proceed from the jet bridges to immigration on the arrivals level with lines that can extend to 30–40 minutes when multiple regional flights land together. Visa-on-arrival counters line the left side of the hall, and eVisa travelers follow the main immigration lanes. Checked bags are collected from carousels behind immigration before customs inspection; onward international connections require re-checking bags at the departure terminal. Domestic arrivals in T3 exit directly into the landside lobby with minimal formalities. Amenities include Mingalar Sky lounges in both T1 and T2 (airside, near mid-concourse) with showers, local snacks, and quiet seating; T3 offers a smaller paid lounge near Gate 2. Dining options feature Myanmar and Asian staples alongside cafes like YSG Coffee Bar and quick-service noodles, plus duty-free retail clustered near the international departure gates. Prayer rooms are signed in each terminal, free Wi‑Fi is available though speeds can vary, and currency exchange booths sit near arrivals exits. Accessibility accommodations cover elevators, ramps, and wheelchair services coordinated through airlines. Nursing rooms are available airside in T1 and T2, and family restrooms sit adjacent to most gate clusters. Designated smoking rooms remain in limited locations in T1/T2; families traveling with children will find stroller-friendly elevators and open seating areas, while pet relief must be handled outdoors beyond the terminal entrances.
