🏢 Terminal Information
Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) in Spain serves as a major international airport for the Costa Blanca region, handling a substantial volume of tourist traffic from across Europe. The airport operates from a single, modern terminal building (T1, integrating former Terminals 1 and 2) designed for efficient passenger flow, particularly for leisure travelers. Its layout is comprehensive, featuring clearly defined zones for check-in, security screening, and departure gates. All essential services and amenities are conveniently located within this single structure, minimizing the need for complex inter-terminal transfers. Walking times within the terminal are moderate, typically ranging from 10 to 20 minutes to reach various gates and facilities, ensuring a manageable transit experience.\n\nSecurity procedures at ALC adhere to stringent Spanish and European Union aviation standards. Passengers can expect thorough screening protocols for both carry-on and checked baggage, along with personal security checks. The airport can experience varying wait times at security checkpoints, particularly during peak tourist seasons and flight departure banks. It is advisable to arrive with ample time. For international arrivals and departures, dedicated immigration and customs facilities are seamlessly integrated within the terminal. Travelers undergo standard passport control (especially for non-Schengen flights) and customs declaration procedures. While Alicante Airport does not offer expedited services like Global Entry, the efficient processing typically ensures these border formalities are handled without significant delays.\n\nAmenities at Alicante-Elche Airport are well-appointed for a major tourist destination. Several comfortable lounges are available for eligible passengers, offering quiet spaces, refreshments, and business facilities. Dining options are diverse, including a selection of cafes, fast-food outlets, and restaurants, offering both local Spanish cuisine and international choices. Retail facilities are also extensive, featuring duty-free shops, stores selling local products and souvenirs, fashion boutiques, and convenience shops for travel essentials. Accessibility features are robust, including barrier-free access, accessible restrooms, elevators, and dedicated services for passengers with reduced mobility available upon request. Family facilities, such as children's play areas and baby changing rooms, are typically available, making travel with young children more convenient. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the terminal.
