San Francisco International Airport is spread across four terminals: Terminal 1, Terminal 2, Terminal 3, and the International Terminal. Since the 2024 renovation wrapped up, most of SFO’s terminals are now linked by walkways past security, so getting from one terminal to another no longer always requires going through a security checkpoint. This guide breaks down each terminal, so you know exactly where you’re headed before you land or depart.

SFO Terminal 1
View the official SFO Terminal 1 map (PDF) on flysfo.com.
Terminal 1 completed a $2.4 billion renovation in 2024 and is now Alaska Airlines’ primary SFO hub, following the airline’s move here from Terminal 2. It’s a domestic terminal with B gates, plus a newer mezzanine-level security checkpoint accessible directly from the AirTrain.
Lounges & amenities
The Alaska Lounge (an 11,000-square-foot space with a barista bar and lounge seating), The Club SFO (a Priority Pass-accessible lounge), and an American Airlines Admirals Club are all located post-security. Travelers will also find children’s play areas, a yoga room, museum gallery space, and a wide range of dining and shopping options throughout the terminal.
Airlines
Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, JetBlue, Southwest Airlines, Frontier Airlines, and Porter Airlines are some of the airlines operating from SFO Terminal 1.
SFO Terminal 2
View the official SFO Terminal 2 map (PDF) on flysfo.com.
Terminal 2 was the first airport terminal in the U.S. to earn LEED Gold certification. There are mainly C and D Gates.
C Gates
Home to 10 gates, numbered C2 through C11, and Delta Sky Club.
D Gates
The larger of the two, with gates D1 through D18, and an Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge.
Lounges & amenities
Beyond the Delta Sky Club and Maple Leaf Lounge, SFO Terminal 2 also has a temporary Amex Centurion Lounge near gate D12. The permanent Terminal 3 location remains closed for renovation. The terminal is known for a calmer, more spacious feel compared with SFO’s other domestic terminals, along with a strong lineup of Bay Area dining options.
Airlines
Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, Air Canada, and Breeze Airways. Learn more on the SFO Terminal 2 page.
SFO Terminal 3
View the official SFO Terminal 3 map (PDF) on flysfo.com.
Terminal 3 is United Airlines’ exclusive domestic hub at SFO and the airport’s largest terminal by gate count, with 36 gates. They are Gates E1–E13 and Gates F1–F22.
Lounges & amenities
Two United Club lounges serve the terminal, along with a variety of restaurants and shops.
Construction notice
SFO Terminal 3 is in the middle of the $2.9 billion T3 West Modernization project, renovating the western half of the terminal through 2027. Expect some rerouted walkways and temporary signage in that section – build in a few extra minutes if your gate falls within the construction zone.
Airlines
United Airlines (domestic hub). See the SFO Terminal 3 guide for more detail.
SFO International Terminal
View the official SFO International Terminal map (PDF) on flysfo.com, or read our full SFO International Terminal guide.
The International Terminal is split into two boarding areas: G and A. They aren’t directly connected to each other’s airside. To move between them, you’ll need to use the AirTrain and pass through security again.
Boarding Area G
Connects airside to Terminal 3 and is home to United’s international operations, including a United Polaris Lounge and a United Club. This side also houses SFO’s BART station, accessible from the ticketing level.
Boarding Area A
Connects airside to Terminal 1 and serves a mix of international partner carriers, including lounges for British Airways and Emirates.
Airlines
United Airlines (international), plus long-haul carriers such as British Airways, Lufthansa, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Air France, ANA, Cathay Pacific, Turkish Airlines, Air China, Korean Air, and Japan Airlines.
Getting between terminals
SFO offers two ways to move around:
AirTrain
Free and running 24/7 with trains arriving every few minutes. The Red Line connects terminals only, while the Blue Line also stops at the parking garages and Rental Car Center.
Post-security walkways
Since Terminal 1’s renovation was completed, most of SFO’s terminals are linked to airside, meaning many connections no longer require leaving security and re-clearing a checkpoint.
If you’re connecting between flights, check your gate-to-gate walking time before you land – some transfers, especially into or out of the International Terminal, can take longer than the map suggests.
Checking your terminal before you travel
Because SFO’s airline lineup changes periodically (Alaska’s 2024 move from Terminal 2 to Terminal 1 is a good example) it’s worth confirming your terminal and gate shortly before your trip. Checking your live SFO flight status is the fastest way to see your current gate assignment, and once you know your terminal, our SFO Airport Map can help you find parking, check-in, and security checkpoints from there. If you’re budgeting time for the checkpoint itself, SFO TSA wait times can give you a sense of what to expect before you leave for the airport.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which SFO terminal is Alaska Airlines in?
Alaska Airlines operates out of Terminal 1 (Harvey Milk Terminal) in Gates B1–B27. Alaska relocated to this modern facility in 2024 after previously being based in Terminal 2. Please note that terminal assignments are subject to change.
Which SFO terminal is United Airlines in?
United Airlines domestic flights depart from Terminal 3 (Gates E and F). All United international departures and arrivals operate out of Boarding Area G inside the International Terminal.
Can I walk between terminals at SFO without leaving security?
Yes, SFO terminals are connected post-security through airside connector walkways. You’ll need the AirTrain or a walk through the main terminal to move between them.
How do I transfer between terminals outside of security?
Landside terminal transfers are easiest via the AirTrain, SFO’s free automated people mover operating 24/7. The Red Line loops continuously through all four terminals, while the Blue Line connects the terminals to the Rental Car Center, BART, and parking garages.
Where is the SFO BART station located?
The BART station is located on Level 3 of the International Terminal near Boarding Area G. Passengers arriving at domestic terminals can either walk over or take the free AirTrain directly to the BART station entrance.
