Main Terminal / Concourses at Washington Dulles IAD Airport

Passenger Terminal Layout of Washington Dulles International Airport and How to connect to other Terminals:

Dulles International Airport has one large passenger terminal with separate mid-field concourses, A, B, C D & Z & H, all connected to the Main Terminal, which consists of (a) the Ground Transportation Level for rental cars, hotel information and taxis & shared vans; (b) the Arrivals/Baggage Claim Level with baggage claim carousels 1 to 15, Information counter, USO Lounge , & Washington Flyer Bus near Door 4; attached to this level is the International Arrivals Building to the right; (c) the Security Checkpoint Level, with an AeroTrain to the left and right of the center, and security checkpoints on either side; and (d) the Departures / Ticketing Level, with ticket counters 1 to 4 a walkway to the Daily Garage 2, a currency exchange, and escalators / elevators to Z gates, with a pedestrian walkway to Concourses A/B.

The express underground AeroTrain at the Washington Dulles Airport, now partially in operation, is designed to make a complete loop from the main terminal (after security check) to A & C Gates, future gate site, D & B Gates, and back to the Terminal, taking less than 2 minutes between stations. Even though the loop has not yet been completed, AeroTrain, which starts its run beyond the security checkpoints, runs into two temporary directions: (a) to the right to the B gates, and (b) to the left to  A gates A1 to A6 (United Express), continuing to the future gate site, where a moving walkway will take you to the C gates. Until the AeroTrain loop is completed, the shuttle route will still connect to the H gate, D Gates and A Gates A1 to A6). Arriving domestic passengers at A, B, C gates - follow signs ‘Baggage Claim / Ground Transportation’. Arriving international passengers will still board a shuttle to US Customs.   The layout of the gate areas is as follows: After security check at the north end of the passenger terminal, you can take the elevator to the Z Gates to the left and a shuttle to the H Gates to the right. Thereafter there are two more separate concourse areas:

Concourses A & B of the IAD Airport:  (at left) A Gates: A1 to A6 (for United Express) & A14 to A32; and (at right) B Gates: B35 to B51 and B 62 to B 79 A walkway connects these concourses to the main terminal. The AeroTrain now connects separately to the A gates A1 to A6, and another one to all B gates.

Concourses C & D of the IAD Airport: (at left) C Gates: C1 to C30; and (at right) D Gates: D1 to D32. AeroTrain presently skips Concourse C, but stops at the following future gate area, where you can take a walkway to Concourse C. You still need to take the shuttle to the D gates and A gates A1 to A6.
