Harry Reid International Airport Terminal 3 Map (Most Up-To-Date)
Terminal 3 at Las Vegas’s main airport complex is a long east–west terminal with a stacked-roadway front, where Level Zero (Arrivals) stretches across high door numbers and Level 2 (Departures) sits above it. The secure E Gates concourse feeds an underground tram station that links to the D Gates satellite, while a climate-controlled bridge on Level 1 connects the terminal to the parking garage. Most confusion comes from crossing the wrong threshold between secure and public areas.
Map Table

|---|---|---|---|
| Level 2 (Departures) | ticketing, TSA checkpoint, E Gates concourse | Red Line access down to tram level | Door 44 (CX bus) |
| Level Zero (Arrivals) | baggage claim, Customs exit area, ground transport curb | Inter-Terminal Shuttle access | Door 55 (Inter-Terminal Shuttle, paratransit), Doors 56–57 (intl taxis), Door 52 (domestic taxis) |
| Level 1 (Bridge) | pedestrian bridge corridor | terminal ↔ garage | bridge entry points near Door 54/56 area |
| Garage Valet Level (V) | rideshare staging | Uber/Lyft pickup | Valet (V) |
Harry Reid International Airport Terminal 3 (LAS) Map Strategy
- Treat every glass-door threshold near the tram station as a one-way risk: if signage shifts to “Baggage Claim/Exit,” stop and re-orient before crossing.
- For D↔E transfers, commit to the airside vertical move: tram arrival level → elevator up to Level 2 E Gates; following the crowd toward baggage claim is the classic re-screen trap.
- Use door-and-level targeting for ground transport: Door 55 for the Inter-Terminal Shuttle (and nearby accessible/assisted loading), Door 44 on Level 2 for the CX bus, and Valet Level (V) in the garage for Uber/Lyft.
- When “Terminal 3 / E / D” naming gets confusing, anchor by function: E Gates = Terminal 3 concourse; D Gates = satellite reached by Red Line; Terminal 1 access = landside shuttle at Door 55.

The 2025 Terminal 3 layout still revolves around door-number wayfinding on Level Zero and a vertical split for pickups: shuttles and taxis at Arrivals, public bus at Departures, and rideshare down in the garage’s Valet (V) level. The Red Line tram remains the key link to D Gates, and the biggest “map moment” is staying airside when transferring D↔E.

What is the exact curb position of the Terminal 3 Inter-Terminal Shuttle stop on Level Zero (using door numbers/landmarks)?
The Terminal 3 Inter-Terminal Shuttle stop sits on the Level Zero (Arrivals) curb outside Door 55. The stop is in the center-east portion of the Terminal 3 frontage, marked by blue-and-white “Inter-Terminal Shuttle” signage distinct from rental-car and hotel shuttles.
A reliable approach is to anchor from the Customs-side end: walk west along the curb or inside the baggage-claim hall until you reach Door 55, then step directly out to the curb where the shuttle loading zone is signed. If you see the international taxi queue at Doors 56–57, the shuttle stop is immediately west of that queue, one door-number block closer to the terminal’s center.
Which Terminal 3 baggage-claim exit is closest to the pedestrian route into the rideshare pickup area (bridge/garage entry point)?
Door 54 is the closest baggage-claim exit for the most direct pedestrian route into the rideshare garage bridge. The quickest rideshare path starts by getting to the Level 1 pedestrian bridge, not by trying to cross the Level Zero curb.
From the baggage-claim hall, head to the mid-terminal exits and use the elevator bank nearest Door 54 to go up to Level 1. On Level 1, follow the signed pedestrian bridge into the parking garage (you’ll move from the terminal’s interior finishes into the concrete garage structure). Once inside the garage, use the garage elevator bank to go down to Valet Level (V) for Uber/Lyft pickup.
At the D Gates tram arrival, where is the specific elevator you must take to reach E Gates without exiting the secure area?
Exiting through the automatic glass doors toward Baggage Claim forces a landside exit and re-screening, so the correct elevator is the one before those doors on the tram-station side. That elevator is the airside vertical link from the Red Line arrival level up to the Level 2 E Gates concourse.
After you step off the Red Line at Terminal 3, stop on the tram-station lobby/platform side and face the crowd flow toward “Exit/Baggage Claim.” Do not go through the glass door threshold into the baggage-claim hall. Instead, scan the side wall areas of the tram-station lobby for “E Gates” or “Connecting Flights” signs and take the nearby elevator up to Level 2, where you emerge directly into the secure E Gates area.
Which marked doorway/threshold near the D↔E transfer area is the most common “accidental landside exit” that triggers re-screening?
Re-screening is triggered by walking through the automatic glass doors labeled “Baggage Claim”/“Exit” from the Terminal 3 Red Line tram-station lobby into the baggage-claim hall. That doorway is the point-of-no-return that flips you from secure to public.
The trap happens right after arriving at Terminal 3 from D Gates, when the crowd streams toward the bright, open baggage area. The threshold to watch is the glass-door line that opens into the baggage-claim hall by the carousel corridor (Carousels 16–30). If you pass those doors, you’re landside and your only way back to E or D is going up to Level 2 and clearing TSA again, so the correct move is to stay in the tram lobby and take the airside elevator up to Level 2 instead.
After exiting Customs in Terminal 3, what is the shortest mapped route to the Inter-Terminal Shuttle stop (level changes + curb side)?
No airside route exists after Customs, so the shortest path is a landside walk on Level Zero to Door 55 for the Inter-Terminal Shuttle. The walk is short but easy to miss because you exit on the far east end of the terminal.
| Step | Where to go | Level | Landmark anchor |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Exit CBP/Customs to the public arrivals area | Level Zero | Customs exit at the far east end (around Doors 57–58 area) |
| 2 | Walk west (toward lower door numbers) inside the baggage-claim hall or along the curb | Level Zero | Keep Door numbers decreasing |
| 3 | Exit at Door 55 to the curb and queue at the signed shuttle stop | Level Zero | “Inter-Terminal Shuttle” signs; intl taxi line at Doors 56–57 just east of you |
What is the exact parking-garage level / zone used for Uber/Lyft pickup for Terminal 3 arrivals?
Uber/Lyft pickup for Terminal 3 arrivals is on the parking garage’s Valet Level (V), the basement level. That pickup is not on the Level Zero curb and not on the Level 2 departures curb.
The practical routing is “up–across–down”: from baggage claim on Level Zero, take an elevator up to Level 1, cross the enclosed pedestrian bridge into the parking garage, then take the garage elevators down to Valet (V). The rideshare pickup area is marked in that subterranean Valet level, so if you find yourself standing at Door 55 (shuttles) or Door 44 (CX bus), you’re in the wrong pickup layer for Uber/Lyft.
Where is the ARAC (Rent-A-Car) pickup/drop-off zone located along the Terminal 3 Level Zero curb (door-number anchoring)?
The Rent-A-Car (ARAC) shuttle zone at Terminal 3 runs on Level Zero with stops at both curb ends: Doors 51–54 on the west side and Doors 55–58 on the east side. The shuttle loads from the signed “Rent-A-Car Shuttle” area in the curb median, so the correct tactic is choosing the door cluster closest to where you exit baggage claim.
If you’re already using Door 55 as your anchor (Inter-Terminal Shuttle area), the rent-a-car shuttle is also available in the same east-end door band (55–58) but is a separate, clearly marked queue/sign. If you exit nearer Door 52–54 (domestic side), you can catch the same rent-a-car shuttle loop from the west-end band without walking the entire frontage.
Where is the Remote Parking Shuttle stop on Terminal 3 Level Zero, relative to the numbered exits?
The Remote Parking Shuttle pickup at Terminal 3 is clustered at the Level Zero curb around Door 55, with additional courtesy/parking-shuttle activity commonly staged near the west-end Doors 51–52. Door 55 is the most reliable “center-east” anchor because it’s where multiple transfer-style services consolidate.
If you exit baggage claim near the Customs/international side, walk to Door 55 and look for the signed courtesy/parking shuttle loading area near the Inter-Terminal Shuttle zone. If you exit nearer the domestic side, check the curb outside Doors 51–52 first before committing to a long walk east. For any remote lot tied to Terminal 1, the functional rule is that Door 55’s Inter-Terminal Shuttle is the required first leg—there isn’t a direct Terminal 3 curb bus to the Terminal 1 economy system.
Where exactly is the CX bus stop at Terminal 3 (Level 2 / Door 44) relative to the nearest escalator/elevator path from arrivals?
The CX bus stop is on Level 2 (Departures) outside Door 44, reached by going up from arrivals before you go outside. The fastest path from baggage claim is to take the nearest escalator or elevator up to Level 2, then walk along the departures curb until you reach Door 44.
From Level Zero baggage claim, use the central elevator/escalator banks to reach Level 2 and follow door-number signage on the departures side until you see Door 44. Exit at Door 44, cross the marked crosswalk to the center median, and look for the RTC bus stop sign. If you’re standing at Door 55 on Level Zero (shuttles/taxis), you’re on the wrong level for CX—go back inside and go up to Departures.
From the Terminal 3 security checkpoint, where is the Red Line tram entrance to D Gates (directional placement + nearest landmark)?
The Red Line tram entrance to D Gates is reached by descending from the post-security E Gates concourse down to the tram level. It sits centrally in the secure-side circulation area as the main “D Gates / Tram” funnel, so your key action after TSA is to follow overhead signs for “D Gates” rather than walking deeper into E Gates.
After clearing the Terminal 3 security checkpoint on Level 2, stay in the main concourse spine and look for large overhead wayfinding that explicitly calls out “D Gates” and the tram. The entrance is the down-moving bank of escalators/elevators that drops you to the underground/Level Zero secure tram station; that descent point functions as the central distribution hub between E Gates retail and the D Gates connector.
Where is the Terminal 3 taxi queue on Level Zero relative to the Inter-Terminal Shuttle stop (so travelers can choose faster egress)?
The closest taxi option to the Inter-Terminal Shuttle stop at Door 55 is the international taxi queue at Doors 56–57, immediately east of the shuttle. The domestic taxi queue is farther west at Door 52.
From the Door 55 shuttle-loading area, face the curb and look toward higher door numbers: the taxi line at Doors 56–57 is the fast pivot if the shuttle wait is long. If you instead walk toward lower door numbers (west) to Door 52, you’ll reach the domestic taxi queue, which is better positioned for travelers exiting near the west-end baggage claim doors but is a longer backtrack from Door 55. Both queues ultimately serve the same destination flow into Las Vegas.
Where is the RTC Paratransit bus stop on Terminal 3 Level Zero (exact curb position using door anchors)?
The RTC Paratransit stop is on the Level Zero (Arrivals) curb outside Door 55. It uses the same center-east curb zone that’s designed for accessible loading and is adjacent to the Inter-Terminal Shuttle area.
From inside baggage claim, exit at Door 55 and look for the paratransit/accessible loading signage in the signed shuttle/transport cluster rather than the taxi lines. If you accidentally exit at Doors 56–57, you’ll be in the international taxi queue area; walk one door-number block west back to Door 55 to reach the paratransit position.
