at the airport

Can anyone help me distinguish the differences among terminal, concourse, and lobby at the airport? I am not sure if they are all used at the place.

Terminal refers to an entire building. There may be several terminals at a large airport. Concourse refers to one of several long corridors in a terminal along both sides of which the gates are located.
