Hamburg - Getting There By Air

Hamburg Airport
Tel: (040) 50750.
Website: www.ham.airport.de

Hamburg airport lies 8km (5 miles) north of the city centre. Facilities include a bank, bureau de change, post office, ATMs, and Wi-Fi. There are good business facilities, several restaurants, bars and cafes plus a variety of shops with a brand new retail plaza under construction (to open late 2008).

The S-Bahn (suburban rail network) line S1 operates every 10 minutes between Hamburg Airport and Hamburg's central railway station/Hauptbahnhof. Public buses run to different parts of the city. An alternative is to take the yellow Airport Express bus, run by Jasper, direct to the main railway station/Hauptbahnhof. These leave every 15 to 20 minutes (journey time - 25 to 30 minutes). Night bus 606 runs from Terminal 2 to Hbf and Rathaus U-Bahn station in the city centre. 

There are taxi ranks in front of Terminal 1.


Lübeck Airport
Tel: (0451) 583 010.
Website: www.flughafen-luebeck.de  

Lübeck Airport is 8km (5 miles) south of Lübeck, which itself is 59km (37miles) northeast of Hamburg.

A dedicated Ryanair bus runs from Hamburg Hbf to Lübeck Airport and back, to coincide with flights (journey time - 75 to 85 minutes). Bus 6 runs to Lübeck Hbf via the town centre (journey time - 20 to 30 minutes).

Taxis are available from outside the terminal building and are an option if you are staying in Lübeck (journey time- around 20 minutes), but would be very expensive to hire to Hamburg.
