San Francisco International Airport has four terminals - the International Terminal, Terminal 1, Terminal 2, and Terminal 3. The three domestic terminals - 1, 2, and 3 - are laid out in a partial ring, with the domestic parking garage in its middle. The International Terminal completes the ring, with its dedicated parking placed in front of it, outside the ring. Presently, Terminal 2 is undergoing renovation.
The terminals are linked together by the AirTrain internal transit system, operating 24 hours per day. It is also possible for passengers to walk between terminals. Each terminal serves several airlines and a large number of destinations. Each terminal is well served by restaurants, bars, newsstands, shops, and ATMs (cash machines).
