Your transfer at Hamburg Airport

To and from the airport

With AYDEN's Hamburg Airport transfer, a certified chauffeur takes you between Hamburg Airport (HAM) and your destination: the central station, the city centre, the Hamburg Messe exhibition centre or HafenCity.

Arriving in Fuhlsbüttel

Hamburg Airport, whose official name is Hamburg Airport Helmut Schmidt, is in the Fuhlsbüttel district in the north of the city. On pickups, your chauffeur waits for you with a name sign in the arrivals hall of Terminal 1 or Terminal 2; we monitor your flight, and 45 minutes of waiting time from the actual landing are included in the fixed price.

Departure and booking

For departures, your chauffeur collects you from your address, whether that is a hotel on the Alster, an office in HafenCity or your home in Eppendorf, and takes you straight to your terminal. The price calculator shows you the fixed price and the vehicle classes available for your route immediately, and you can book around the clock, including at short notice.

Fixed price instead of a running meter

With AYDEN there is no meter ticking away: the price of your airport transfer is fixed when you book. Traffic jams on the way to the terminal or a diversion make no difference.

The price depends on the route and the vehicle class, and the price calculator shows you the exact amount straight away. All prices include VAT.

Flight monitoring and 45 minutes’ waiting time

When we collect you from the airport, we monitor your flight. All you need to do is enter your flight number when you book. That way we can see when your plane actually lands, whether it is early or late.

The fixed price includes 45 minutes of waiting time from the actual landing time. If your flight is delayed, the 45 minutes only start once you have actually landed – time to collect your luggage and make your way to the arrivals hall.

Pickup with a name sign in the arrivals hall

For airport pickups, your chauffeur waits for you in the arrivals hall with a name sign. There is no taxi rank to find and no queue to join: once you have your luggage, head into the arrivals hall and walk to the car together with your chauffeur.

This is particularly helpful if you are travelling with lots of luggage, or if you are booking a transfer for guests who do not know the airport.

Meeting point at Hamburg Airport: arrivals hall and name sign

Terminals 1 and 2: arrivals on Level 0

Hamburg Airport has two terminals, Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, with the Airport Plaza in between. After baggage reclaim, you come out into the arrivals area of your terminal on Level 0. Your chauffeur waits for you there, in the arrivals hall, with a sign showing your name.

Flight number and waiting time from landing

Give us your flight number when you book, and we can see when your plane actually touches down in Hamburg, even if it lands later than planned. The 45 minutes of waiting time included in the fixed price only start from that moment – time for baggage reclaim and the walk to the arrivals hall.

Departures: terminal and security

For departures, your chauffeur takes you to Terminal 1 or Terminal 2, depending on where your airline checks in. Security is located between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 on Level 1 of the Airport Plaza. Journeys to the airport take longer in rush-hour traffic, so allow some extra time.

Hamburg Airport transfers to the trade fair and for business travel

Hamburg Messe and the CCH

The airport and the Hamburg Messe exhibition centre are approx. 10 km apart, about 16 minutes' drive without traffic. The exhibition grounds and the CCH – Congress Center Hamburg are in the heart of the city, close to Dammtor (Messe/CCH) station. Your chauffeur takes you from the terminal straight to the fair, to your congress at the CCH or to your hotel first.

Meetings in the city centre and HafenCity

Whether your meeting is in the city centre around Rathausmarkt or your office is in HafenCity, your chauffeur drives you directly to your address. The airport and the Elbphilharmonie in HafenCity are approx. 13 km apart, about 22 minutes' drive without traffic. Companies with regular journeys can pay by invoice via bank transfer.

Hamburg Airport: transfer, S-Bahn or taxi?

S-Bahn line S1

You can reach the “Hamburg Airport (Flughafen)” station directly from the arrivals areas of Terminals 1 and 2. According to the airport, the S1 runs every 10 minutes and takes around 25 minutes to Hamburg Hauptbahnhof. That works well if you are travelling light and your destination is near the line; for the trade fair's East Entrance and the CCH, you change at Hauptbahnhof to the S2 or S5 to Dammtor (Messe/CCH).

Taxi

Taxis wait at the taxi ranks outside Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 on the arrivals level. To avoid long waits, the airport recommends ordering your taxi as soon as you arrive. You only see which car you get when it pulls up.

AYDEN transfer

Your certified chauffeur, who holds a German passenger transport licence (Personenbeförderungsschein), meets you with a name sign in the arrivals hall and drives you to the door with no changes, including to addresses away from the S-Bahn. You know the price as soon as you book, and traffic jams or diversions do not change it. Travelling as a team, with several suitcases or a tight schedule, this is often the more comfortable option.

Vehicles and groups for your Hamburg Airport transfer

Choosing your vehicle class

Depending on the route, you can choose from First Class (2 passengers), Business Class (3 passengers), each with room for 2 bags, and the Business Van (Mercedes-Benz V-Class) for 6 passengers and 6 bags. The price calculator shows which of these are available for your journey from Hamburg Airport, together with the fixed price.

Groups of up to 17

If you are arriving with more than 6 people, for example as a trade fair team or delegation, please use our ‘Request a quote’ form. Groups of up to 17 can request the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter there, which cannot be booked in the calculator; we will prepare an individual quote for you.

Child seats

Child seats are available free of charge on request. Just note in your booking how many you need.
