What city are you talking about?

In Manila they use terminal 3 (the new one - Naia 3) for all their flights (domestic and international).
For Seoul they use the Incheon airport - usually at the new gates.
In Cebu there is only 1 terminal and you choose domestic or international.

There is only 1 passenger terminal at the Incheon airport.

The check-in counters for ALL flights are in the same big room.

There is an e-board just inside the doors (several in fact - around the departures area) that will show you which check-in counter to go to.

Anywhere in the world, you typically do not know this until you get a boarding pass. Just check in with your airline and then look at an airport map to navigate to where Terminal X,Y, or Z is located.

At Incheon (as at most international airports) there is only 1 passenger terminal .. but there are many gates.

In those cases where there are multiple passenger terminals (like Manila) you need to know which terminal to go to so you can check in and get your boarding pass (not get your boarding pass to find your terminal).

Manila international airport aka: Ninoy Acquino International Airport (MNL) has 4 terminals that are in use and they are MILES apart from each other.

Most international flights go to NAIA 1, PAL flights go through NAIA 2, Zest Air and Cebu Pacific now use the new NAIA 3 and smaller airlines like SEAIR still use the old domestic terminal.

And doesn't LAX have different terminals too that are in separate buildings and you need to take a shuttle bus (or taxi/drive) to go from one to another? http://www.heliphoto.net/i/LAX_Terminals.jpg

Actually, Incheon now has two passenger terminals, but you still enter through terminal 1 to get to terminal 2.

At Incheon everybody checks in at the same place, once you get your boarding pass the lady will probably circle the gate and terminal. Once you clear customs there are clear signs indicating where to go to get to terminal 2. It involves going down some escalators and taking a train over to the other terminal.

I think the OP has had his question answered, but just for conversation purposes.......

At Orlando International they have an "A" terminal and a "B" terminal, but they are really just opposite sides of the same terminal building. It's easy to find out ahead of time which side your airline is, but even if you don't know they have large signs directing you as you enter airport property. It makes it really convenient for dropping off passengers, especially if they have luggage to check, which can be done curbside. But from there, everyone just heads to the middle of the terminal, where the monorails take them to their gates.

Minneapolis has 2 terminals as well, Humphrey and Lindberg. Lindberg is the main one for all international flights and domestic flights on big carriers. Humprey is the one for low cost carriers, and really the one you want to fly out of if you can, since it's much easier to deal with.

Seattle-Tacoma International has 3. Domestic East-Coast/Mid-west ; Domestic West-Coast/Central ; and international. Connected by an underground tram system. Although I think the layout of Sea-Tac is rather poor.
