Düsseldorf International Airport (DUS) is the closest airport to Düsseldorf city centre, located about 9 km (5.6 miles) from Düsseldorf Central Station (Düsseldorf Hbf). If you arrive in Düsseldorf by train or bus and need to catch a flight, you can quickly get from Düsseldorf Hbf to Düsseldorf Airport by taxi or private transfer, train or bus.
The most straightforward and most convenient option is taking an airport taxi or private transfer for a door-to-door service. For the 20-minute ride, a regular taxi costs approximately €29 for up to 3 people; this will be a metered fare so the trip’s exact cost will depend on traffic conditions. A budget-friendly alternative is the train from Düsseldorf Hbf to Düsseldorf Airport. This journey takes 8-12 minutes, plus waiting time, and costs approximately €9 per person. Alternatively, you can take a bus to DUS, costing only €2.80 per person. However, this option takes about 30 minutes, and a 20-30 minute waiting time may apply.
