Edmonton International Airport (YEG) Flights and Facilities
About Edmonton Airport
Edmonton International Airport (YEG) is the primary air gateway for Alberta’s capital region and northern Canada. Located in Leduc County, about 32 kilometres south of downtown Edmonton along the Queen Elizabeth II Highway. YEG handles over 8 million passengers annually and is ranked among Canada’s busiest airports by passenger volume.
What sets YEG apart from most Canadian airports is its compact, single-terminal design. The entire airport’s check-in, security, baggage claim, dining, shopping, and all gates sit under one roof. Walking from one end of the terminal to the other takes under ten minutes. There are no shuttle buses between buildings, no concourse trains, and no risk of ending up at the wrong end of a sprawling complex.

Edmonton Airport Terminals
YEG is built around a chevron-shaped terminal that merges what were originally the North and South Terminals into one seamless structure. The terminal spans two levels:
| Level | What’s here? |
| Arrivals (Ground Level) | Baggage claim, customs, ground transportation, rental cars, parking access |
| Departures (Upper Level) | Check-in counters, security screening, shops, restaurants, all boarding gates |
The terminal is divided into two concourses:
| Concourse | Gates |
| Concourse A | 50-59 |
| Concourse B | 60-73 |
Once you clear the single central security checkpoint, you’re in a shared departures area. Concourse A is to your left, and Concourse B is to your right. The walk between them takes under 5 minutes.
The terminal has designated arrivals and departures levels, with gate areas for domestic, international, and US-bound flights. Gate assignments and airline operations can change, so use the airport’s terminal map.

After disembarking, you’ll proceed to the appropriate customs channel (if arriving internationally), collect your baggage from the carousels, and exit into the arrivals hall where ground transportation is available.
