Getting there, Kiss & Fly and terminals: what to know on site

Kiss & Fly: After the barrier in front of the terminals, you can stop for up to 10 minutes free of charge, once a day. After that, parking fees apply. If there are four of you or you have lots of luggage, let your fellow travellers and suitcases out here and then drive to the car park on your own.
Two terminals side by side: Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 are right next to each other and connected. Eurowings, Lufthansa and Austrian Airlines check in at Terminal 1. If your shuttle stops at Terminal 2, simply walk across. Your booking or the departures board shows which terminal applies to your flight.
Station below the terminals: If you come from the ibis car park by S-Bahn, you get off one level below the terminals and walk straight into Terminal 1 or 2.

It gets busiest during the school holidays in North Rhine-Westphalia: over 1.8 million passengers travelled during the 2026 summer holidays. As rates vary with availability, it is best to book your space early for holiday trips.
