Passenger Facilities
The Departures area is a modern air-conditioned building with glass walls to both land and air sides. It is all on one (ground) level, allowing easy passage from car or taxi to aeroplane. Just inside the entrance are six check in desks in two areas. These are followed by a single security area and, later, two passport and customs booths before a large seated waiting area with three gates. The gates are simple doors at ground level. This area does not have a shop or restaurant but does have a coffee machine and toilets.
The Arrivals area, on the other hand, is a large metal shed. Passengers wind through it to a double passport kiosk, while passing the single baggage carousel. Exit is through a single set of automatic doors where those meeting passengers congregate in the open air. Functional would be a diplomatic description, though at least distances are very short.
In 2016 Bergerac airport created a larger car park and set down area for visitors, passengers and car hire companies. The new roof is completely covered in solar cells to provide eco-friendly electricity. In addition road traffic was moved back from the terminal and all car hire companies were allocated matching offices beside each other immediately outside the arrivals terminal.
