Can you walk between Miami airport terminals?

There are 3 levels in the terminals at Miami International Airport. For arrivals, baggage claim is on Level 1. To move between terminals, take the moving walkways on Level 3. There are also moving walkways from the Central Terminal to the MIA Mover Station which you can use to get to the Rental Car Center.



Yes, you can walk between all terminals at Miami International Airport (MIA) in 2026, as they are all physically connected under one continuous roof. The airport is shaped like a large "U" and is divided into three main areas: North (Concourse D), Central (Concourses E, F, G), and South (Concourses H, J). To facilitate movement between these distant points, MIA features a series of moving walkways on Level 3 (the Skyride) that connect the three terminal areas. If you are traveling within the massive North Terminal (Concourse D), you can also use the MIA Skytrain, an automated people mover that runs above the gates and has four stations to save you from a 1.2-mile walk. For 2026 travelers, the "walkable" nature of MIA is a benefit, but it can be time-consuming; moving from the far end of the North Terminal to the South Terminal can take 20–30 minutes on foot, so using the moving walkways and the Skytrain is highly recommended.
