London Heathrow to Hamburg Flights
Heathrow Airport
When commercial flights began at Heathrow back in 1946, it was never envisaged that the airport would go on to handle over 68 million passengers a year and fly to 180 worldwide destinations. As the UK’s busiest airport, Heathrow has historically come under criticism for being overcrowded, but the opening of its fifth terminal earlier this year has gone some way to relieving this problem by increasing the potential capacity to 90 million passengers a year. British Airways operate daily flights from London Heathrow to Hamburg, with a number of indirect flights being offered by alternative airlines such as KLM and Lufthansa. The duration of flights from Heathrow to Hamburg is just an hour and 45 minutes.
Hamburg Airport
One of Germany’s oldest commercial airports, Hamburg was built in 1911 as a base for what was thought to be the future of aviation; the airship. Now almost a century later and long after the airships met their demise, 60 modern airlines fly
12 million passengers a year from Hamburg direct to 130 destinations worldwide. The facility has undergone an extensive renovation programme since 2001 introducing major improvements including a brand new state of the art terminal, a new multi-storey car park and a range of extra enhancements to make the passenger experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

Six main car parks at Hamburg airport provide safe, secure parking for over 10,000 vehicles.
