Getting Around MIA Airport

Miami International Airport is structured into three main terminals: North, Central, and South, each comprising multiple concourses. The North Terminal, exclusively used by American Airlines, features Concourse D with 51 gates. The Central Terminal houses Concourses E, F, and G, offering a mix of domestic and international flights. Concourse E is a hub for American Airlines and its partners, while Concourses F and G cater to various other carriers. The South Terminal includes Concourses H and J, with Concourse J being the latest addition and equipped to handle the Airbus A380.

When navigating the airport, consider the following tips:- Each terminal and concourse is well-signposted, making it easier to locate your gate.- Moving between concourses within the same terminal is straightforward, but transitioning between different terminals may require more time and possibly a shuttle ride.- Numerous lounges, including American Airlines Admirals Clubs and an American Express Centurion Lounge in Concourse D, offer places for relaxation and work.- For international arrivals, most concourses, except for Concourse G, provide direct access to U.S. Customs and Border Protection facilities, streamlining the entry process.
