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).

HVV Airport Express bus 110 connects with the railway system (S1 and U1 lines) at Ohlsdorf station. It runs every 10 minutes (journey time - 10 to 15 minutes). An alternative is to take the yellow Airport Express bus, run by Jasper, direct to the main railway station/Hauptbahnhof (Hbf). 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. A direct rail link from the airport to the city centre running every 10 minutes should be in operation by mid to late 2008.

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.
