Located a short distance from Hamburg in northern Germany, Hamburg Airport is one of the country’s busiest air transport hubs. Our Hamburg Airport guide includes contact details, as well as useful information regarding terminal facilities, public transport connections and nearby accommodation options.
Hamburg Airport began construction work in 2016 to update and modernise the airport. Work is expected to finish in 2020. The work being done includes refurbishment of Apron 1, modernisation of check-in baggage conveyor belts in Terminal 2, and the creation of more space in front of the central security checkpoint.
Airport information desks are located in Terminals 1 and 2. The Hamburg Welcome Centre, located in the Airport Plaza on the arrivals level, provides airport information, travel tickets, event ticket sales, hotel reservations and other services. It is open from 0630 to 2300 daily.
