Terminal layout
Belfast Airport is home to one main terminal, making planning your journey through the airport all the easier.
Terminal map
See Belfast Airports official website for a map of the Terminal.
Check-in
Check-in is located on the first floor immediately opposite the entrance. Information on checking-in times can usually be found on your airline ticket. Alternatively, you can consult with your airline directly.
Leisure and family facilities
Baby changing
Belfast Airport has plenty of baby changing facilities located throughout the terminal. These can be found before security in the main arrivals hall on the ground floor. After security, you will find facilities in the domestic departure lounge at gates 10-14, in the international departure lounge, and opposite the food village.
Pushchairs
It is no problem to take your pushchair through security. However, please be ready to remove your baby for a few minutes while the pushchair is put through the screening x-ray.
Baby milk
It is now possible to take more than the standard 100ml of baby food through security, provided that this is for the sole purpose of your journey.
If you want to restock after security, Superdrug has a range of baby essentials including milk, nappies and wipes. They also run a pre-order service, meaning you can order your supplies in advance and then simply collect them from Superdrug once you have cleared security. Call Superdrug directly on 028 9447 0596 to place your order. This needs to be done at least 6 days before you travel.
Information desk
A tourist information desk is located in the arrivals hall of Belfast Airport. Here you will find information on onward travel, Belfast attractions, accommodation, events and transport.
Shopping
Belfast Airport has a number of retail outlets catering for your travel needs. As well as staples such as Superdrug and WHSmith, you can also enjoy browsing Aelia Duty Free for tax-free top brand goods and The Irish Quarter for last minute gifts. The Irish Quarter stocks local Irish souvenirs and artisan food produce.
Food & drink
Belfast Airport has a range of cafes and restaurants to satisfy your dining requirements. For coffee, sandwiches and light bights head to Caf Bar (arrivals hall) or Caff Ritazza (departure lounge). For pub style dining, try The Lagan Bar (departure lounge) or for hot food, head to The Strangford Grill (departures Concourse). Fed & Watered is the newest addition to Belfast Airport, offering freshly-made local meals with fantastic views of the runway.
Childrens menus are available at The Strangford Kitchen, The Lagan Bar and at Fed & Watered. There is also a branch of Burger King located in the Food Village.
All of Belfast Airports restaurants and food outlets have high chairs and are happy to warm baby milk.
Business facilities
Business lounge
Belfast Airport is home to a sophisticated business lounge that guarantees to whisk you away from the airport crowds and into a comfortable, peaceful and luxurious environment. Relax with freshly brewed coffee, complimentary refreshments, a range of snacks and free unlimited internet.
Access to the lounge is available to all passengers and is open from 05:30 21:15 daily. You will not be allowed access to the lounge in advance of two hours before the scheduled departure of your flight and last admission to the lounge is 30 minutes prior to the closure of your flight. As Belfast Lounge operates a silent policy no flight announcements or updates are made. You should therefore be mindful of the time when enjoying the lounge facilities.
Belfast Airports business lounge is located after Aelia Tax Free Shopping. It is located centrally in the departure lounge, equidistant between the domestic and international boarding gates.
Childrens access is permitted, but is at the discretion of the lounge staff, and access may be denied during the busier periods of lounge use. Children under the age of 2 go free.
You can pre-book your entry to the Business Lounge on Belfast Airports website.
Getting online and staying connected
Pay as you go internet access points are located throughout the airport terminal.
Mobile broadband is provided through Spectrum Interactive and can be accessed from any area in the terminal building.
