New passage in the Departures Terminal

Today, a new passage was launched from the Main Entrance to the Departures Hall, leading further to the Check-In Hall and then to the Arrivals Hall. As a result, the previous passage through the main entrance hall has been closed.

Recommendations regarding entrances

We still recommend using the entrances located in the central, glass-covered part of the terminal, directly in front of the Check-In desks.

Change of parking rules in front of the Terminal

To increase the comfort of passengers arriving by vehicle, the ban on stopping on the road in front of the recommended entrances will be maintained until further notice. Drivers can stop there for a maximum of 2 minutes.

Path to reach service points

The path to reach service points located at the main entrance to the Departure Hall remains unchanged, such as:

Passenger Services:
– Welcome Airport Service ticket office,
– Airline Service travel agency,
– Apcoa Parking office,
– Holiday Service travel agency.

Rent-a-Car:
Partners: Carwiz, Interfleet, Ace, Car Net, Flex to go, Odkryj Auto, Panek, MagRent, Auto Union, Add Car, Sur Price.

What does the investment plan look like?
The works are being carried out in stages to have the least impact on the operation of the airport. This includes, among others:
– Reconstruction of the Departure Hall in the place where the queue for security control was previously located,
– Modernization of security checkpoints,
– Opening a completely new commercial zone after modernization.
– Check-in time and suggested arrival time:

Under normal conditions, we recommend arriving at the airport:
– Domestic flights: 1.5 hours before departure,
– International flights: 2 hours before departure.

Typical service time includes registration (check-in), security check and possible passport control. What to look out for? Please be especially vigilant and plan your arrival in advance. It may happen that the time to go through security check due to the currently conducted, crucial works in the Security Control Zone itself may currently be longer than usual, and some areas of the airport will be temporarily out of use.

What can happen?
– Longer queues for check-in and control are possible,
– Changes in the organization of passenger traffic at the airport,
– Temporary closures of some service points.

When is it best to arrive earlier?
We recommend arriving at least 30–60 minutes earlier than usual, especially if:
– The journey takes place during rush hours (morning and evening),
– The passenger has checked baggage,
– The journey is to countries in Non-Schengen, which means passport control is required,
– You are travelling in a group,
– On the first flight from this airport.

We especially recommend verifying the number of planes departing at the same time as your flight. If there are not many of them, you should not expect difficulties, however, if there are several other departures during the hours (+/- 2h) of the flight, then we recommend arriving at the airport earlier.

We are making every effort to ensure that the modernization runs smoothly and that your journey is as comfortable as possible, and we will keep you informed about any changes on an ongoing basis.
Poznań Airport Team

Due to this fact, from January 9, 2025, we ask that passengers arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before their planned departure! We apologize for the inconvenience and will make every effort to ensure that during this transitional period the reconstruction of our infrastructure has the least possible impact on your service.

Due to construction works, from 6 December 2024 we are obliged to decommission the eastern entrance to the terminal (from the side of the VIP lounge and ‘yellow suitcase’) and the lift leading to the mezzanine.

The access to the entresol is via an escalator located next to the entrance to the security control area.

The works will not affect the airport’s daily operations, we still recommend arriving at the airport 2 hours before your scheduled departure.
