Cologne Bonn Airport (CGN) serves as the region’s primary international gateway and can feel like a mid-sized hub mixing scheduled carriers and many low-cost airlines, so fares are often competitive for European routes. The airport sits about 15–20 km southeast of Cologne’s city centre; tram and S-Bahn connections typically take 15–20 minutes, regional trains around 20–30 minutes, and taxis about 25–35 minutes depending on traffic — expect modest local fares or short public-transit ticket prices. CGN is convenient for quick city access and budget-conscious travelers, though it can be busier at peak times and offers fewer long-haul services than larger German hubs.

Fly direct from Cologne to Bilbao for the quickest, most convenient way to get from Germany to Spain — fewer hassles, no layovers, and more time to enjoy Basque city life.

The airport is generally compact and easy to navigate, offering modern amenities; however, peak times can be busy and some regional connections may require transfers.
