Car hire Hanover Airport

Hannover Airport (HAJ) is called Langenhagen Airport by some. It is thought of as a local airport by the residents of the municipality of Langenhagen. Hannover Airport first opened its doors in 1952. It replaced a very basic airstrip that was awkwardly located within the limits of the city. Two state-of-the-art terminals were later built in 1973. They became renowned for their well-organised design. Cheap car hire at Hannover Airport (HAJ) can be sorted out from the Arrivals zone.

In 1998, the already reasonably sized airport increased in size by adding Terminal C to help manage overcrowding. Now 20 aircraft can use aircraft stands and jetways at the same time. All terminals are big enough to receive large planes like Boeing 747s. Terminal D is principally used by the British Royal Air Force. It caters to troops based throughout northern Germany.

The year 2000 marked the beginning of the airport authority project to construct the S-Bahn shuttle. It travels on a route with stops in between the airport and the city of Hamelin. Trains leave like clockwork every 30 minutes. The whole route is travelled at high speed in a mere 17 minutes. The train was part of a modernisation scheme and a development from the previous bus service that departed more often than the S-Bahn. It took fewer passengers and was not as efficient during busy hours. The new rail service has been extended into the township of Paderborn. Taxis and car rental are also good options.

Flights from most major airlines go in and out of HAJ. There are also many flights operated by no-frills airlines, the most prominent one being TUIfly, which runs many flights every day from HAJ.
