Inside each terminal

Check-in, security, the station link and how to change terminals — verified against the airport's own pages.

Terminal Único

Jorge Chávez has had exactly one passenger terminal since 1 June 2025 — no letter or compass direction to pick. Inside it, the airport’s own directory of shops groups the building into a domestic zone (“Marketplace Nacional”) and an international one (“Marketplace Internacional”), plus a third boarding pier it simply labels “Dique Swing” without explaining which flights use it.

Check-in

For a domestic departure, be at the airline counter two hours before your flight — the airport’s own example: an 08:00 flight to Cusco means arriving by 06:00. A new island of 30 self-service kiosks opened in March 2026, bringing the terminal to 123 check-in kiosks in total (120 regular counters plus 3 for oversized baggage).

Accessibility

Braille signage, a tactile floor route, electric courtesy carts, family restrooms and alternative ramps/lifts run through the whole building — the airport calls itself the first in Peru with terminal-wide accessibility. Free help at the Information Modules: Peruvian sign language, wheelchair and stroller loans, sunflower lanyards, and extra time to disembark via the Fast Lane at Gate 2, Floor 3.

Marketplace Internacional

The international-departures side of the same building, and the only zone the airport names explicitly in an official listing — home to The Club LIM lounge and to Priority Lane, a paid fast-track security lane between check-in islands F and G.

Check-in

For an international departure, be at the airline counter three hours before your flight — the airport’s own example: an 08:00 flight means arriving by 05:00.

Security

Priority Lane, on Level 3 (landside), between check-in islands F and G, validates boarding pass, TUUA and passport before a dedicated security lane — but not immigration, which still follows the standard queue. Open to Priority Pass members and for sale to anyone.

Accessibility

Same terminal-wide accessibility as the rest of the building: braille signage, tactile route, electric carts and free assistance at the Information Modules.

The domestic-flight side of the one terminal building — the airport does not publish which of its 20 airlines fly which zone, since assignment follows the flight, not a fixed rule.

Where the terminal’s own lounge, The Club LIM, sits — the airport describes it as being “in the International Departures zone”, the clearest official confirmation these zones separate real passenger flow, not just shop categories.
