About South Terminal
South Terminal is the only one of MIA's three terminals split across two concourses, H and J, connected to each other rather than built as one straight corridor. Shopping outweighs dining here by a wider margin than elsewhere at MIA: 42 shops against 21 restaurants, close to two shops for every place to eat. That ratio is roughly inverted from North Terminal's. The two-concourse layout and the store counts trace to the Miami-Dade Aviation Department's services and amenities listing; that listing did not include airline assignments, gate ranges or checkpoint locations for either concourse, so this description does not state them.
