๐ข Terminal Information
Hamburg Airport operates two terminals (T1 and T2) functioning as a single integrated complex connected airside. T1 handles most international traffic including major carriers, while T2 primarily serves low-cost and charter flights. The terminals share a common departures level with seamless passenger flow between sections. Approximately 17 million passengers annually pass through the airport's 34 gates. The compact design ensures efficient connections with walking times: check-in to gates 5-12 minutes, maximum gate-to-gate transfers 15 minutes. Security processing typically takes 10-20 minutes, with shorter lines at T2. Schengen and Non-Schengen areas are clearly separated post-security. Immigration for non-EU passengers adds 10-25 minutes depending on traffic. The airport features modern amenities including duty-free shopping, restaurants, cafes, and airline lounges. Ground transportation is excellent with S-Bahn S1 providing direct connections to Hamburg city center in 25 minutes. The airport's strategic location in northern Germany makes it a convenient hub for Scandinavia and domestic German connections.

๐ข Terminal Information
Augsburg Airport (AGB) in Germany functions as a small, regional airport, primarily serving general aviation, business aviation, and limited charter operations for the city of Augsburg and its surrounding Bavaria region. Crucially, the airport *does not host scheduled commercial airlines* for regular passenger service, meaning its air traffic operates on a non-scheduled basis. Its terminal facilities are extremely rudimentary, typically consisting of an FBO (Fixed-Base Operator) building that houses basic amenities, administrative offices, and a small waiting area. The layout is minimalist, offering direct access from the parking area to the tarmac and aircraft. There are no complex inter-terminal configurations or extensive ground facilities; all operations are centered around this singular FBO building. Walking times are negligible, usually just a few steps from the FBO to the aircraft, reflecting its role as a general aviation hub.\n\nSecurity procedures at AGB are minimal, consistent with its general aviation status. Formal security checkpoints for commercial-style passenger screening are not present. Security protocols focus on maintaining a secure operational environment for aircraft and property, often involving perimeter fencing and access control. Individuals accessing the airpark typically coordinate directly with the FBO. There are no significant wait times for any checks. As a domestic private airfield, there are no immigration or customs facilities on site; these functions would be handled at larger international airports in Germany for any cross-border flights. Passengers should expect a relaxed and informal environment, typical of a private general aviation airport.\n\nAmenities at Augsburg Airport are very limited, catering to the needs of pilots and aircraft owners rather than commercial passengers. There are no airline lounges. Any available refreshments would likely be from a small FBO counter or vending machines. Retail facilities are specialized, focusing on aviation supplies rather than general consumer goods. Passengers are advised to make any necessary purchases or arrangements for food and drink prior to arrival. Accessibility features are basic, relying primarily on ground-level access. Specialized assistance for passengers with reduced mobility would need to be coordinated in advance with the FBO. Family facilities, such as children's play areas or dedicated nursing rooms, are not provided. The airport's primary utility is to support flight operations for general aviation, with passenger comforts being secondary.
