The NRW summer holidays begin on Friday - and with them the biggest wave of travellers at Cologne Bonn Airport. Over the next six and a half weeks, the airport is expecting 1.7 million travellers, who are particularly drawn to southern climes such as Turkey, Spain, Italy and Greece. The last two holiday weekends in mid-August are particularly busy, with around 118,000 passengers each.
To save time on the day of travel and enjoy a relaxed start to your holiday, it is worth booking a fixed time slot for the security check with CGNGateway. With just a few clicks, you can choose a time slot that suits your flight and then use separate access to the security checkpoint. This service is free of charge and can be booked from 72 hours before departure.
