Latest airport reviews
Literally the WORST airport I have ever travelled from. No phone charging station (or plug sockets) available anywhere this is a standard in most counties so how Germany can’t offer this is beyond me. There is no access to the duty free or the McDonald’s from terminal 2 airside even though it looks like you should be able to access it! Just shocking all round!
I was flying to Napoli 3 weeks ago from Koln airport. Spent 3 hours for the hand luggage control. People were missing their flights. Have to fly again on Sunday to London and I am terrified!! Asked my friend to come with me because I am scared to loose my spot in a 4 hours waiting queue in case I need a toilet. I am 75 year old! All other airports are working OK now… how neglected people are in that place? So many complains and nothing was done!
• 2.5 hours waiting time for security screening
• No baggage drop counters, so you have to check in again despite checking in online
• Staff who seem to have all the time in the world
• Food prices at the gates.....simply criminal. Will never fly through this airport again.
