GUM Airport Overview

To help you plan your layover or overnight sleepover, here is a quick run-down about what to expect during your time at Guam International Airport.

What to Expect

Guam Airport (code: GUM) has a single terminal with three levels: Concourse, Arrivals and Departures. The airport features several different airside eateries, a few retail outlets and duty-free. WiFi is available at some of the eateries and in the airport lounges. Economy class passengers can pay to use one of the airport lounges. See Airport Lounges in the guide below.

Sleeping in Guam Airport

guam airport guideThe airport has cushioned seats and wooden (unpadded) benches. Landside, the benches with the least amount of noise (and people traffic) are the ones beside the outrigger canoe on the check-in/departure floor. You’ll find more information in the arrivals area as well. Airside, carpeted areas are available at empty gates, but bring earplugs/noise-cancelling headphones, as the airport is described as loud throughout. For uninterrupted sleep, several hotels are within paid shuttle distance of the airport. See Airport Hotels in the guide below or read traveller airport reviews for more tips.
