Edmonton International has a South Terminal and its current extension, referred to as the 'North Terminal'. The new three-level South Terminal includes a Central Hall, an Arrivals level, a Departure Level and an Observation deck level. The North Terminal construction is referred to as  'Expansion 2012', upon completion of which there will be one integrated passenger terminal.  All facilities in the North Terminal are being tested by volunteers and on February 11, 2012, with the opening of the US Departures lounge & customs facility, and the addition of other services and amenities,  there will be only one Main Terminal.

Present Check-in options at Edmonton International Airport:
(a) Web Check-in: Most of the major airlines at Edmonton International Airport offer Web Check-In . Use online check-in from your home, office, or any place you can access the Internet to check in for your flight and print your boarding pass before you leave for the airport. On arrival at the Airport, look for baggage drop areas for Web Check-In that will allow you to bypass the regular check-in/ baggage drop line and save time. 
(b) 28 self-check-in kiosks throughout the terminal allow passengers to access multiple airlines from one machine, check in faster, and avoid line-ups. The kiosks are free, easy to use, and can be used by all guests. It takes approximately 60 seconds to check in at a kiosk, making them a quick and convenient alternative to traditional check-in processes.
(c) There are also two Airport Express kiosks located at the Downtown Visitor Information Center at 9990 Jasper Avenue for customers who want to check-in for their flight downtown before leaving for the airport.
(c) WestJet passengers can now check in and drop off their bags at the main jetSet office, which is in the jetSet parking lot, take a shuttle to the terminal and proceed without hassle to security.
