Welcome to Abu Dhabi International Airport’s new Terminal A

The new terminal features an array of state-of-the-art facilities, designed to maximise the comfort and experience of passengers. From luxury lounges to spa facilities and relaxation zones, Terminal A will enable travellers to rest and rejuvenate during their visit to Abu Dhabi International Airport. With over 160 retail and food and beverage outlets, catering to a wide variety of tastes and preferences, Terminal A will deliver a new standard of airport experience for both leisure and business travellers



The terminal has been designed to create seamless connectivity for visitors and transit passengers. It is equipped with advanced biometric technology, and when fully operational, will be the only airport globally to offer all 9 touchpoints in the biometric journey; paving the way for a travel experience tailored to individual passengers.



Passengers at Terminal A can experience a seamless journey from pre-travel to the boarding gate, facilitated by the latest technologies and interconnected biometric systems. The terminal provides self-service kiosks, streamlined security checkpoints, and advanced baggage handling systems to ensure a smooth and digitised travel experience.



The building itself has won a number of prestigious awards for its modern and functional design, and recently featured as a set in the latest Mission: Impossible film. Incorporating energy and water saving technology, and a sizeable solar plant instillation, it has been built with the environment in mind.
