From there you may use the suburban trains 1 or 11 or the underground 1 to the city center. All trains stop at the central station (main tourist information). A single one-way ticket is 2,50 Euro, a day-ticket 4,90 Euro, traveltime to the main station is around 40 minutes in total. For more information, routings or prices visit http://www.hvv.de which is available in English too.

The information displayed here is very much out of date.

There is now a great public transport connection from the Hamburg Airport to the central Hamburg train staton, all connecting commuter lines, and of course inter-city rail. The S-Bahn ticket costs €2.75 one-way and signs are clearly marked to the station, which is right under the terminal. I can't believe I used to pay €35 to get home by taxi.
