hamburg airport - always happy landing or never happy landing???

Hamburg airport Fuhlsbüttel is one of the most problematic airports of the world. It causes a lot of problems for more than 400.000 people in Hamburg and around the town. And it is not very comfortable for passengers either.

• As a passenger, you might expect, the innercity airport hamburg should be good accessable like other airports. But unfortunately, hamburg airport is not!
  • Unlike to all other greater airports, there is no railway station. An urban railway had been planned, but has not been built. So, taking the train is impossible!
  • Hamburg airport lies mid in the housing areas, but it is 6 miles away from the central city. And driving time is unpredictable, not only during the rush hours.
  • You may use the bus from and to hamburg airport. Looking at the time tables, you might expect a driving time of 25 to 35 min. But with respect to the enormous traffic problems, you might have to calculate more than 1 hour for transfer. Sometimes you will need more time from hamburg airport to hamburg city by bus than from hannover to hamburg by train. So, bussing is unpredictable!
  • Driving by car is a great risk. You will hardly find a parking place. And if you use a parking place in the housing areas around, your car might stand not very long there. These areas are restricted and your car may be confiscated earlier than you expect. So, better do not use a car!
  • Using the bicycle you could avoid some traffic problems. But there is no cycle station at the airportSo, you might have seen your bike at the airport for the last time in your life!
  • So, dear traveller, take a backpack and use your own feet! It´s only two to three hours hard walking from the airport to the city. And the time is predictable. Happy hiking to hamburg airport!
  • Or - take the train or ferry to hamburg - it´s faster and more convenient!
• Landing and departing at hamburg airport is quite a risk!
  • More than 60 percent of the approaches go over the housing areas of Hamburg-Langenhorn. The aircraft you might sit in, will be less than 100 feet away from the roofs of the houses. One mistake of the pilot, and you should indeed have had a good life assurance!
  • There is no safety analysis for hamburg airport. Can you guess the reason?
  • There is no emergency runway near to the airport. Nearly any emergency landing will cause a crash against massive house walls. Needless to say anything about the chances of survival!
  • The main part of airport control is now located in bremen and not in hamburg. So, you´ll be guided by a quite far away remote control.
• Landing and departing at hamburg airport causes a lot of problems for the inhabitants of hamburg and vicinity, too:
  • Hamburg airport is one of the loudest of the world. Since the airport had been built in between of the housing areas, and there is no free area in front of or behind the runways, all the aircraft noise pollutes the housing areas.
  • The noise level in the hamburg housing areas goes up to more than 108 dB(A) during landing.
  • The start noise impact on housing areas goes up to more than 99 dB(A) during starts .
  • Hamburg airport is a plague to the kids. Unlike other innercity airports, hamburg airport has a lot of night flights disturbing the children´s sleep during their night time after 7 p.m. One single day means over 100 thundering noise attacks against the children´s right on healthy sleeping.
  • Noise protection level by hamburg airport is extremely low. To reach the noise protection level of munich, hamburg airport would have to spend mor than 4 Billion $! Yet less than 1 percent of the necessary noise protection has been done by the airport.
• So - take the train or ferry to hamburg - it´s faster and more convenient!
  • These are the best ways to travel to hamburg:
  • Take the fast and convenient trains of DB - the german railroad, f. ex. the world famous ICE (up to 175 mph) from most german and some european cities or the superb luxus train metropolitan. Cologne-Duesseldorf-Essen-Hamburg. A train like champaign.
  • Take the beautiful trip by DFDS Seaways ferries (London)-Harwich-Hamburg. Much better than any plane - and you will arrive just in the heart of Hamburg. But best of all: The beautiful sights when you sail upstream the Elbe river. And the unforgettable views of the city of hamburg when you arrive at hamburg harbour - unique in the world.
  • From Scandinavia you may access Hamburg by TT Line via Lübeck, by Stena-Line or Color Line via Kiel. This gives you a pleasant journey with beautiful views and top comfort.

Happy landing in hamburg? Seems to be impossible by aircraft!
