Question 1

Why does Humberside Airport have two terminals?

Accepted Answer

They serve two different kinds of flying. Terminal 1 is for passenger airlines — KLM, TUI and Albastar. Terminal 2 is Humberside’s base for CHC Helicopters, the only rotary-wing carrier the airport lists as active; in 2025 its helicopters flew 1,398 of the airport’s 4,596 aircraft movements, mostly to offshore energy sites.

Question 2

What time does check-in open at Humberside Airport?

Accepted Answer

Check-in opens at 4.30am for the 6.10am KLM flight to Amsterdam — the airport’s first departure — and generally 2–3 hours before other flights. Confirm your own flight’s check-in window with your airline.

Question 3

Do I need to pre-book parking at Humberside Airport?

Accepted Answer

No. You can turn up and pay on exit at either the short-stay or long-stay car park, but pre-booking the Special Saver or Flexible product online is cheaper and guarantees a space three minutes’ walk from the terminal.

Question 4

How do I get to Humberside Airport by train?

Accepted Answer

Barnetby is the closest station, three miles off, with TransPennine Express and East Midlands Trains both calling there — but no rail line reaches the airport itself, so the final leg is a taxi. The airport’s approved partner, Cable Taxis, covers the transfer on a 24-hour line.

Question 5

Where can I fly to from Humberside?

Accepted Answer

KLM flies to Amsterdam Schiphol seven days a week, connecting onward to more than 160 destinations worldwide. TUI runs a seasonal direct charter to Palma de Mallorca on Tuesdays and Saturdays each summer.
