Getting There

By Plane

Hannover-Langenhagen International Airport (HAJ) is a good sized airport only 11 kilometres north of the city centre. The airport has regular international flights to most cities in eastern and western Europe and some to to the Middle East. There are regular domestic flights to most cities in Germany.
In 2000 an S-Bahn connection was established between the airport and Hamelin via Hannover Central Station. Trains leave every 30 minutes for a 17-minute journey. This replaced the airport's shuttle bus service which ran every twenty minutes, more frequently than the S-Bahn, but took longer to reach the airport and railway station. The service was extended to Paderborn in 2003.
