1 DUS it s all about convenience by Ken Donohue Ask anyone outside Germany what that country s three busiest airports are, and you will probably hear something like this: Frankfurt, Munich [München], and Berlin. They would be correct on the first two; but while Düsseldorf may not have the same cachet that Berlin does, it is in fact Germany s third busiest airport. What Düsseldorf International (IATA: DUS/ICAO: EDDL) lacks in fame it surely makes up in convenience. A ten-minute, $2 train ride from the city s central station takes you to the modern airport train station. From there, a monorail SkyTrain suspended from a 2.7km (1.7mi)-long elevated track whisks passengers to the terminal, with a stop at the car park. Even travelling from Frankfurt to Düsseldorf is convenient, thanks to Germany s efficient and extensive rail network. 2 6 June 2005
2 Düsseldorf Airport s train station was built in 2000 in the same style as the terminal buildings, which includes highglass ceilings and sweeping views of the surrounding area. The station is unique in Germany in that 350 stops are made each d a y, and an extra 50 if you include D ü s s e l d o rf s S-Bahn suburban commuter train. Sonja Schröeder, media and internal relations spokesperson for the airport, is quick to point out that not even Frankfurt is that well connected. Today s airport is on a site where an airship hangar was erected by the city of Düsseldorf in 1909, on Golzheimer Heide (heath) near Lohausen, on the east bank of the Rhine [Rhein]. This hangar was leased to DELAG, which operated the first aerial cruise by an aircraft carrying passengers when the Deutschland (LZ 7) set out on June 28, That year, an airfield was prepared to the east of the Zeppelin shed, which was enlarged and used by the military during the Great War (the airship structures were dismantled in 1919). The terms of the Treaty of Versailles prevented any use of the airfield until 1926, when the Paris Agreement loosened some of the restrictions. On April 19, 1927, Deutsche Luft Hansa began a service to Berlin, using four-passenger Junkers F 13s. In September 1939, civil air traffic was halted when the German army occupied the demilitarized Rheinland and took control of the airport. During World War II, Allied bombing destroyed most of the airport buildings. In 1945, US troops occupied the airport for a brief time before command was transferred to the Royal Air Force (RAF). German workers, under the s u p e rvision of the British, re c o n s t ructed one of the thre e runways and rebuilt the former Luftwaffe administration building as a terminal. BEA (British European Airways) began service from London to Düsseldorf on April 4, 1949, and the following day SAS opened a service from Copenhagen. On December 1, 1950, the airport was returned to German control, when the state of Nord Rhein-Westfalen and the city of Düsseldorf assumed ownership. A decade later, in 1961, the airport received a big boost when LTU, now one of Germany s largest airlines, established its base at Düsseldorf. The Sixties also saw the construction of the airport s Terminals A and B. In 1996, a fire swept through the terminal, resulting in 17 deaths. The conflagration, which was unwittingly started by welders working outside the building, slowly burned in the walls of the terminal, and remained undetected for some time. Significant damage resulted, and the passenger handling area was rendered unusable. Subsequently, the terminal in front of Piers A and B was reconstructed, and work completed in Today, a simple yet poignant memorial on the airport s third level commemorates those who lost their lives in the tragedy. And, as Schröeder tells A i rw a y s, because the fire pro v i d e d valuable lessons in the way airports are constructed, other airports officials now come to Düsseldorf to learn fireproofing techniques. If Düsseldorf s advantage is its proximity to the city only 8km (5mi) away in a cruel paradox its disadvantage is that same attribute. Concerned about the growing airport and its impact on the surrounding area, neighbouring towns, along (top) The rail station is situated only minutes from the main terminals; the rail line passing under the airport s southern runway. The SkyTrain station (above) sits alongside the rail link and transports passengers comfortably to the terminals. 2 7
3 with the Ministry of Economy, Commerce, and Traffic, agreed upon the Angerland Agreement, which would limit the airport s expansion. As a result the airport is open only from 0600 to 2300, and slots are restricted to 38 movements an hour. We understand the need to respect the people that live near the airport, says Schröeder, but this really hampers our ability to grow. We have airlines that want to use DUS, but we have to refuse. The airport has been built to handle 22 million passengers per year, but operates well below that level with about 15 million annually. Schröeder admits that Düsseldorf will never be a 24-hour airport, but suggests that more slots per hour may be perm i t t e d, although currently there are no firm plans for this. The airport is consciously aware of its environmental impact, and has implemented measures to reduce noise pollution. Airlines are encouraged to operate quieter aircraft, and are accordingly charged lower fees if they do. Initially, the airport wanted to ban noisy airplanes, but that was not feasible. Schröeder admits that it is difficult to determine if this measure has had much of an impact, but says that some airlines that operate noisier aircraft will pay more, in turn allowing the airport to return funds to the community. Under the leadership of Dr Rainer S c h w a rtz, the airport s CEO, the relationship between the airport and the s u rrounding neighbors has impro v e d immensely. He has brought a host of fresh ideas which benefit not only the airport, but also the entire region. DUS established the Burgher Buro, a small house on the airport grounds, where residents can meet and have answered questions about the airport s operations, development, and noise concerns. The Burgher Bus is another tool. It is important that we communicate with the people that live near the airport, and the bus allows us to travel to neighboring communities, says S c h r ö e d e r. We take their concern s seriously. Proof of that is the 25 million ($33.5 million) spent on new windows for homes located near the airport. Schröeder also notes that the neighbors actually look forward to the bus, and residents a re actively using a newly-initiated n o i s e - re p o rting program on the airport s website. Another innovative idea that DUS implemented with great success is a user fee for movements. As with most airports around the world, slots are coveted and often protected by dominant carriers, but because of the limited number available at Düsseldorf, the airport was forced to be creative. Slots are very important at our airport, and we don t have enough says Schröeder, so we can t stand airlines reserving slots without using them. According to Schröeder, some airlines were not satisfied about this new policy, but the airport could not continue allowing some traditional airlines to limit competition. This fee for movements policy came into effect late in 2003, and has been very successful, as airlines returned unused slots 4,500 from Lufthansa alone. This allowed other, smaller carriers, such as Germania Express and Air-Berlin, to use the airport. This is a unique idea for Europe and the rest of the world, and Schröeder tells Airways that other airports are interested in implementing a similar measure. While this policy has benefited smaller airlines, and ultimately the passenger, some airlines have considered court action against the airport, but DUS is not worried because the state government 2 8 June 2005
4 approved the measure. I n i t i a l l y, the attitude fro m airlines was very negative, but that has since changed, says Schröeder. Lufthansa was one of the biggest culprits, but over the past few months our slots department has worked with that airline to try and find new routes at times that the airline might not have considered. As a re s u l t, Lufthansa now operates a noontime 2 9
5 Lufthansa, DUS s major operator, uses Terminal A, along with a dozen affiliated airlines. The B and C complexes are used by other carriers such as Air-Berlin and LTU International, the hometown airline. flight from Düsseldorf to the Spanish Mediterranean. A parallel runway was constructed in the Nineties, but because of restrictions on development this is located too close to the main runway for simultaneous movements. There is a cargo operation at the airport, but it does not play as big a rôle, such as at Munich, Cologne [Köln]/Bonn, and Frankfurt, because of slot restrictions and nighttime closure. Nevertheless, strong growth was recorded last year, not least because of a new service by Emirates SkyCargo, which is offering twice-weekly Boeing 747 freighter service (operated by Atlas Air) from Dubai (with a weekly extension from Hong Kong). D ü s s e l d o rf is the largest airport in the region, but comparisons with its larger siblings t h roughout the rest of Germany are academic. We know Düsseldorf will never be as large as Frankfurt, or even Munich, says Schröeder, but we have many competitive advantages that will make us successful. She also notes that 18 million people live within 100km (60mi) of DUS, more than the populations of London and Paris combined. Many passengers fro m Belgium and The Netherlands find DUS m o re convenient than Amsterd a m s Schiphol, or Brussels. While Düsseldorf International likes to keep its ego in check, it is proud to have been recently voted Germany s best airport by Capital magazine. That assessment evaluated the country s ten largest airport s, a c c o rdi ng to passenger numbers, and noted that, despite Düsseldorf s size, 3 0 it is an airport of short distances. The airport consists of three terminals, A, B, and C, all of which are connected and form a half-circle. Opened in 2003, Terminal C completed the airport s largest construction project, and continued the same design and feel of the renovated A and B terminals. Combined, the three terminals offer 156 check-in counters. June 2005

This observation area is equipped with a large outside viewing deck, as well as an indoor seating lounge. A nominal fee of 2.00 ($2.70) allows access to both observation decks, and a ride on the airport s SkyTrain. And with over 70 airlines serving 170 destinations, visitors won t leave disappointed. A recently-opened shopping arcade in the terminal, along with the decks, has allowed the airport to become a recreational destination in itself. From train to the plane is one slogan that the airport has used to distinguish itself. But this isn t an empty promise DUS delivers. From the moment you step off the train, or park your car, the airport will charm you with its fresh and welcoming feel. So, if your travels take you through Düsseldorf International, allow some extra time you will be impressed, and don t forget to visit the observation decks with their stunning views. 3 2 June 2005
