Düsseldorf Airport (DUS) is the region’s primary international gateway, serving a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines and often handling long-haul and European connections. Located about 7–8 km north of the city center, it can be reached by S-Bahn or regional trains in roughly 15–20 minutes, with single-ticket fares typically falling in the low single-digit euros; taxis take around 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and cost noticeably more. The airport offers extensive shopping and lounges for comfort, plus good onward public-transport links to the Rhine-Ruhr area. On the downside, busy peak periods can mean queues at security and higher fares than secondary airports.

Athens International Airport (ATH) is Greece’s main international gateway and a regional hub for full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines, so you’ll typically find a mix of legacy and budget carriers. It sits about 20 km (roughly 30–40 minutes by road) east of central Athens; taxis can take 35–45 minutes depending on traffic and usually cost in the mid-range for European capitals, while the suburban rail (Proastiakos) and metro connect the airport to the city center in about 40 minutes with modest ticket prices. Bus routes offer cheaper, slower options overnight. Pros: modern facilities, frequent connections, and straightforward public-transit links. Cons: distance from the center and possible busy peak-hour road congestion.
