Ground transfer from Hamburg dock to airport


Recommended Posts

Hi from Karen & Glenn - We arrive in Hamburg on the QM2 in late October.  We are scheduled to dock at approximately 7:00AM in Hamburg.  Our Swiss Air flight to Zurich leaves from HAM at about 11:20AM.  We know that a taxi is an option, but can anyone recommend a better conveyance from the Hamburg cruise port to the main Hamburg airport?  Thanks in advance for any recommendations/suggestions.

From what I see, the QM2 is scheduled to dock at Steinwerder Cruise Terminal. Steinwerder is in the middle of the industrial port, far away from any public transport. And public transport there is adjusted to harbour workers and virtually non-existent on a sunday, when you will arrive.

 

So unless you want to splurge on a private limo service, the taxi is the way to go and without any real alternative. The standard business model of Uber, hiring a private car, is illegal in Germany, Uber will just work as a taxi-app with a taxi doing the job in the end.
