About Dusseldorf Airport

Dusseldorf Airport (DUS) is the third-busiest airport in Germany, serving Dusseldorf, the state capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, and the wider Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan region, which includes Cologne, Essen, Dortmund, and Bochum. Located approximately eight kilometers north of Dusseldorf city centre, the airport handles around 25 million passengers in normal years. Lufthansa and its regional partners operate the largest share of traffic, alongside Eurowings, Ryanair, easyJet, TUI, and numerous international carriers.

The airport is particularly important for the Rhine-Ruhr area, one of Europe’s most densely populated industrial regions and a major centre for trade fairs, notably through the Messe Dusseldorf exhibition centre. The airport features three terminals connected by the SkyTrain automated people-mover, and a direct rail connection to Dusseldorf’s city centre via the S-Bahn. The lost property office is located at the Sheraton Dusseldorf Airport Hotel, adjacent to the terminal complex, and operates with broad daily hours.

What Should You Do If You’ve Lost Something at Dusseldorf Airport ?

If you notice the loss while still in the terminal, go to the information desk or speak to airport staff immediately. Note which terminal you were in, as the airport spans three separate buildings.

Dusseldorf Airport’s lost property office operates from 5:00 AM to 11:00 PM every day, giving a long daily window for reporting and follow-up.
