One terminal, one route
Departures, arrivals, security, gate and baggage reclaim all sit in a single building. Coverage does not depend on which pier a passenger is routed through, because there is no pier choice.
Advertising
A million people through one building
RKT is a single-terminal airport, which is unusually good news for an advertiser. There is one route through the building, everybody walks it, and in 2025 a little over a million people did.

Audience
Who walks past
The airport's published traffic. There is no per-site impression count and no independently audited footfall study — where you see a number here, it is passenger traffic, not an estimate of eyeballs on a panel.
A mixed audience
Scheduled traffic to India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Russia and Egypt sits alongside resort-bound leisure arrivals and a business aviation operation. The mix shifts by time of day rather than by terminal.
Dwell in the right places
Baggage reclaim, passport control and the departures hall are where the time is spent. Those are also where the digital and large-format inventory sits.

Planning ahead
The terminal is changing
A new terminal of around 30,000 m² is under construction, planned for three million passengers a year and targeted for completion in 2028. If you are negotiating a multi-year contract, ask how your sites are treated through the transition — it is a fair question and we would rather answer it at the start.
