Düsseldorf → Aachen: key facts

Private transfer, Düsseldorf Airport (DUS) to Aachen: the car (1–3 passengers) is €250 and the van (4–8) is €310, a set price for the vehicle that does not change at checkout. Expect 95 km on the road via A 44 and A 46; about 1h 15min off-peak, 75–90 min in rush hour.

Pickup: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the terminal your flight lands at (A, B or C), after baggage reclaim and the customs exit, holding a sign with your name. The booking includes flight monitoring and an hour of free waiting from touchdown; your bags are loaded for you.

Aachen lies roughly 80 km west of the airport, near the Dutch and Belgian borders. The drive uses the A44 and A4 motorways via Mönchengladbach and Jülich, in about 55 to 65 minutes. There are no border controls in the Schengen area, and the route does not leave Germany. The Aachen city centre has a low-emission zone and a pedestrian core around the cathedral.

The old centre of Aachen is built around the cathedral (a UNESCO World Heritage site) and the Katschhof square, with the town hall next to it. The famous Printen gingerbread shops, the Elisenbrunnen spa fountain and the Marktplatz are within a few minutes of each other. Most of the old centre is a pedestrian area, so the car stops at the ring road or the closest open street. The main railway station is on the south-east edge of the centre, about 10 minutes' walk from the cathedral.

Public transport instead: Rheinbahn / DB Regio train S11, then RE1 from Düsseldorf Flughafen Terminal to Düsseldorf Hbf, then Düsseldorf Hbf to Aachen Hauptbahnhof, S11 every 20 minutes, 1 change. No direct train from the airport station; the usual route is the S11 to Düsseldorf Hauptbahnhof and a regional express towards Aachen, with one change.
