Official SFO airport map

Terminals and concourses are drawn as simplified shapes in reading order. Their order, spacing and orientation are not geographic, and no walking route between them is implied.

The official page provides terminal/security groupings but not every gate/level. American adds two Terminal 1 gate pairs. Remaining doors, exact points and levels: verify on site. Do not mistake the diagram for complete navigable airport geometry.

Original PetPolicyCheck illustration drawn from the official written sources linked above, read 7 November 2026 (KST). Not traced or copied from any airport map; shapes and positions are schematic.
