About Düsseldorf Airport

Düsseldorf Airport (DUS) is the largest airport in North Rhine-Westphalia and an important hub for both holiday and business travel. It sits about 8 km north of the city centre and connects the region with more than 100 destinations. Terminals A, B and C are all part of one connected building, with arrivals on the lower level and departures on the upper level, keeping walking distances short and meeting your driver quick and simple.

Private Taxi Pickup and Drop-Off Points

Arriving: after baggage claim, walk into the public arrivals hall. Your driver stands there with a sign showing your name. About 24 hours before pickup, we send you the exact meeting point and your driver's phone number, so you can message if the baggage belt is slow. Departing: we stop at the departures kerb in front of the terminal, a few steps from check-in. Tell us your airline and we'll pull up as close to its desk as the road allows. Can't spot your driver? Call the number in your confirmation. Someone answers around the clock.
