Flight Arrivals
Once your flight lands at Malaga Airport it will taxi to one of the holding areas so that passengers can depart the plane. Most of these are access via a covered walkway which is attached to the aircraft upon arrival. However, there are some flights that still require you to either exit the plane and walk to the terminal building or in some cases, you board a bus to take you to the terminal.
Once you are in the terminal building at Malaga Arrivals, you have a fairly long walk to the passport control and baggage areas. There are moving conveyor belts along most of this section until you get close the the passport control.
Passport Control At Malaga Arrivals Area
When you arrive at the passport control area you will be required to show your passport. For British passport holders that are Spanish residents you should have a TIE card and you should show this with your passport. This will mean your passport should not be stamped. The green residency cards are still valid but more often than not, the officer will stamp your passport so it is recommended to get the TIE card.
EU passport holders will usually have a fast track queue as their passports will not need to be stamped upon arrival.
Non EU residents will have already been asked to fill in the necessary forms on the aircraft itself.
Once through the passport control you will go downstairs to the baggage reclaim and customs areas. There are a number of screens detailing which belt corresponds with your flight.
Once you have collected your luggage (hand luggage only will not need to stop at the luggage reclaim area), you follow the signs ‘salida’ to go through the Malaga Airport Arrivals hall where you will see people waiting to meet passengers. This is also where you will most likely meet any car hire representatives, although there are some desks located before you enter the arrivals hall.
The Malaga Arrivals Area
Directly outside of the flight arrivals hall is a cafeteria, the bus stops, the courtesy coach area and the taxi’s. Across the road you will find the railway terminal for Fuengirola bound trains and Malaga city centre bound services. There is also an UBER pick up area to the left as you get to the road where the bus stops are.
Above the arrivals area on the upper floor you will find a selection of shops and cafeterias including a Starbucks coffee shop and a Burger King. On the same level there are also some cafes and a tapas bar.
