Where is the Dusseldorf Airport taxi stand?
Although Dusseldorf has three terminals, they all operate out of one main terminal building. This means that there is only one designated Dusseldorf Airport taxi stand that provides services for all of the concourses. You will find the taxi stand as you exit the Arrivals Hall on the Ground Floor. The long line of white cars with a yellow “TAXI” sign on top will be easy to spot once you exit the main doors and they run 24 hours a day.
As there’s only one rank for the entire airport, wait times for an available taxi can be up to 15 minutes. To avoid these long waits, and to enjoy a personalized meet-and-greet inside the airport, we suggest pre-booking your rides with a trusted company such as Welcome Pickups.
