They are running very strict US style, stupid rule, security. I lost two lighters even before check-in. The airline also advised me there was NO liquids allowed in carryon whatsoever. Not even if it was in a baggie but at the checkpoint no such statement from the screeners and they didn't catch any of mine.

Otherwise. It is a very small terminal. A couple of weeks ago check-in and immigration was reasonably fast but in the past I have had it take forever to get checked in and through immigration and security to the departure lounge as well so I rate it as unpredictable and suggest you arrive with a little extra time for check-in.

On arrival, rush to immigration. Being at the head of the line can be quite helpful here. Other than that it is pretty simple in one end of the building, out the other end kind of airport. Arrival has always been simple and efficient for me.

Departure, Basically, enter the front. Have to show ticket and ID to enter the building. Full security screening, check-in, go to departure tax window, go to immigration, basically all in the same room. Next room over is the departure hall. Another security screening and sit around to wait for your plane. There are a few food counters and simple shops there but basically it is a very simple airport terminal.
