Arriving into Terminal 4

The order is the same in every terminal, and knowing it stops the wait feeling open-ended.

1 Gate 5–15 min Taxiing and disembarking. A jetway is quicker than a bus.
2 Immigration 10–50 min International arrivals only. Domestic flights skip it.
3 Baggage 15–25 min The wait is for the belt to start, not for it to run.
4 Customs 2–10 min Green light and you walk out. Red light, an inspection.
5 Exit   Past the doors. Nobody may meet you before this point.

Landing to the doors: 35–100 minutes in total.

Landing to walking out: 35–50 minutes on a quiet day, 70–100 in peak season. That gap is why meeting someone at the landing time means an hour in the hall.

Getting out from here

All four ways out serve every operating terminal: the official taxi counter is inside the arrivals area, the ADO bus stops right outside, car rental desks are on site, and pre-booked transfers meet you past the exit doors.
