Main Terminal hosts 2 airlines.
Two Tehran flights a day run through this single small hall
The Main Terminal at Sabzevar National Airport is one compact building handling all AFZ traffic, mostly short domestic hops to Tehran–Mehrabad on ATA Airlines and Iran Air. Everything—check-in, security, waiting area, and boarding—sits in one straightforward hall, so walking time from the entrance to the furthest gate is usually under five minutes.
ATA Airlines and Iran Air each run limited schedules here, typically a handful of departures and arrivals per week to THR, so the terminal gets busy in spikes around those flights and feels very quiet in between. Check-in counters are just inside the main door, and lines can form quickly in the 60–90 minutes before departure when both airlines bank flights close together.
All facilities sit post-check-in in the same open space, but there are no branded restaurants, lounges, or duty-free shops catalogued for Sabzevar National Airport. Expect just the basics: simple seating, boarding desks, and likely a small kiosk-style stand for drinks or packaged snacks rather than a full kitchen. If you want a full meal, eat in the city of Sabzevar before you head to the airport, since the drive in from town can run 20–30 minutes depending on traffic.
The Main Terminal operates only around its domestic schedule, so you won’t find 24-hour services or overnight amenities; flights on tracking sites show daytime and early evening movements only. There are no airline-branded lounges, pay-per-use clubs, or quiet rooms, and power outlets are limited, so bring devices fully charged and carry your own offline entertainment for the short Tehran sector, which runs roughly an hour in the air.
Ground handling is simple: one arrivals door feeds into baggage claim, which consists of a basic belt or manual offload point for the small narrowbody and regional aircraft that serve AFZ. With only a few flights per day, bags for a Tehran arrival often appear within 10–15 minutes, and walking from aircraft steps to the exit usually takes under 10 minutes if you move directly and don’t stop in the hall.
Surface access is equally stripped down; there is no confirmed on-site car rental desk or multi-lane taxi rank, just local taxis and private cars using the forecourt immediately outside the terminal door. Build in cash for fares in Iranian rials, since there is no documented foreign-exchange counter or international ATM in the Main Terminal, and card acceptance in taxis remains hit-or-miss.
The best way to use Sabzevar’s Main Terminal: arrive about 60–75 minutes before a domestic departure to Tehran, eat before you come, and keep your phone charged so you’re not hunting for the one free outlet during boarding calls.
