Malaga Airport Departures

When arriving at the airport by taxi or transfer for your outgoing connection you'll be dropped off by the main Departures Hall, which is on the upper level of the airport building. If you use the Airport Train Service then you'll have to use the footbridge to cross the main road, but it's a short walk.

Please bear in mind that while there are improvements being made to the airport site and its transport links you may need to allow extra time to travel to make your connection.

You should check-in at the desks as you enter the Pablo Ruiz Picasso Departures Hall in Terminal 2, and all check-ins can be processed here. There are also some check-in desks in Terminal 1.

There are the usual amenities available once inside the departure lounges; duty free shopping, restaurants and snack bars, gift shops, a chemists and a post office, internet access points, as well as two VIP lounges in Terminal 2.

Once your flight has been allocated a departure gate, passengers will be asked to make their way to a pre-departure 'pier' or 'bay' – where the gates are situated. Access to both bays is from the lounge, with Bay B on the left and Bay C on the right. Usually flights to the UK will start from Bay / Pier C, but this is not always the case so check the information screens in the departure lounge.

For passengers with special needs the Airport provides 'Green Jackets' – customer service agents who will assist up to check-in time, when the airline will take over. Wheelchairs will be requested at check-in.

Up-to-the-minute departures information can be checked via the link below.

You can find out about flight details either by entering the flight number in the left-hand panel, or by selecting the correct airport & airline information in the drop-down menus on the right-hand panel.
