About
Arriving at St. Louis Lambert International Airport
Lambert International has two terminals, and knowing which one your passenger arrives at is essential. Terminal 1 serves most major airlines across Concourses A, B, and C. Terminal 2 is the Southwest hub with a single concourse. The terminals are not connected airside, and each has its own arrivals curb.
The airport is accessible via I-70 and I-170, with relatively easy highway access from most of the metro area. A landing alert paired with the correct terminal saves you from driving to the wrong pickup point.
Pickup tip
STL is 14 miles northwest of downtown St. Louis. Most Southwest flights use Terminal 2, while other airlines use Terminal 1. Confirm the terminal before heading out.
