Can someone please give me information on the DUS airport ground transfer options? Is there a train station convinient to the DUS airport that could take me to CGN and if so how difficult would that be? Any other options you would recommend with approximate cost? I am traveling on business and can expense the cost but it must be resonable.
Many thanks for all your help and suggestions
using a rental car is only a good choice if you need it too, for your work in Cologne! A Taxi ride from DUS airport to Cologne City should be around 40 -50 Euro. ( You can deal with some drivers if you ask not to use the meter ). If you want to go from DUS to CGN airport, that would be a different thing. CGN airport is on the other site of Cologne as DUS is. And I would say from the citycenter itīs around 20km to the airport. From airport to airport some rentalagents offer small cars up to 4 h. for around 29 Euro.
And check if your flight out of Cologne is ( I think you transfer in FRA ) out of CGN or QKL !!!!!! The first one is Cologne/Bonn airport, and QKL is the airrail staition in Cologne city next to the Dome ! The LH airrail goes every 60 minutes and takes about 55 minutes to FRA airport with a highspeed ICE! If you have a LH ticket/segment I would always prever the QKL ride which is much more convinient.
