Check-in & Baggage at Stuttgart Airport – Terminals 1 to 4

Stuttgart Airport (STR) has a clear layout: all four terminals are compact and close together, short distances included. Knowing how check-in, baggage drop, and security control work means you start your holiday relaxed. Here are the key facts at a glance.

Terminals 1 to 4

STR has Terminals 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Terminals 1, 2 and 3 are located under one shared roof and are directly connected on foot.
Terminal 4 is reached via a footbridge from the main building.
Which terminal applies to you depends on airline and destination – you will find the information on your ticket.

Check-in: online or at the counter

Online check-in saves time – available with many airlines as early as 24–48 hours before departure.
At the airport, check-in counters and self-service kiosks are available depending on the airline.
If you are travelling with hand luggage only, you can often skip the counter entirely.

Baggage Drop & Security Control

Checked luggage is handed in at the counter or at the baggage drop.
Please observe the checked baggage and hand luggage rules of your airline.
During holiday periods, allow sufficient time for the security control.
