At the airport

General guidance rather than KSH-specific detail — terminal counts, lounge locations, desk opening hours and lost-property arrangements change often, so confirm those on the airport’s own site before you travel.

SecurityAllow longer than you think at peak departure banks - typically early morning and late evening. Liquids and electronics rules still differ by airport even where scanners have been upgraded.
ImmigrationArriving passengers clear immigration at the first point of entry into a country, not at the final destination, which is what makes tight connections risky on separate tickets.
Terminal transfersWhere an airport has multiple terminals, allow for a shuttle or train between them. Airside transfers are faster, but a change of terminal often means re-clearing security.
Wi-FiFree Wi-Fi is now near-universal at scheduled-service airports, usually with a time limit or an email sign-in. Download boarding passes before you land in case sign-in fails.
Food and shopsMost retail sits airside, after security. Landside options before security are usually thinner and close earlier.
AccessibilityRequest assistance through your airline at least 48 hours ahead. It is a legal entitlement across the EU, UK and US, but only guaranteed when pre-booked.
CurrencyAirport exchange desks carry the widest spreads of anywhere in a country. An ATM in the arrivals hall, or a card with no foreign-transaction fee, is almost always cheaper.
Lost propertyItems left on the aircraft go to the airline; items left in the terminal go to the airport operator. They are separate systems, so report to the right one.
