A high volume of passengers is expected at EuroAirport this coming Pentecost weekend. An early arrival at the Airport is therefore strongly recommended. Thanks to a good preparation, passengers can contribute to flawless check-in procedures and security checks.
Following the reopening of the main runway on May 16, 2026, flight operations at EuroAirport have returned to normal.
Over the coming Pentecost weekend, a high volume of passengers is expected at EuroAirport. This inevitably leads to longer waiting times at checkpoints for both departures and arrivals. An early arrival at the Airport - at least two hours before departure - is therefore strongly recommended.
A meticulous preparation of your journey before departure
It is therefore advisable to find out about entry requirements imposed by the respective airline as well as the country of destination well before departure. Is an ID card sufficient, or are a passport and visa required as well?
Those who have the option to do an online check-in can also save time. Please check with your airline if online check-in is available.
The number of parking spaces is limited. For passengers arriving by car, it is advisable to reserve a parking spot in advance and to schedule sufficient time for parking. In general, the Airport advises to use public transportation.
Saving time at the Airport
Increased passenger volumes may lead to longer waiting times at both passport control and the check-in zones. We therefore advise travellers to arrive early at the Airport and to keep their documents ready for check-in at the counter and passport control.
In order to go through the security checks at ease and to avoid unnecessary waiting times, we invite passengers to get information in advance concerning the types of items allowed as hand luggage and items that have to be packed within the checked baggage. Certain items are not permitted on the flight due to security reasons.
With the return to normal operations, restaurants and the renovated Skyview Lounge in the Terminal are now fully open again.
