With the start of the Easter holidays in North Rhine-Westphalia next weekend, Dortmund Airport anticipates increased travel volumes. Around 27 passengers are expected to use the airport for their Easter holiday trips by April 115.000. This is helped by the fact that the Easter holidays fall entirely in April this year, meaning the summer flight schedule with a wider selection of destinations and more frequent connections has already gone into effect.
Of particular interest is Pegasus Airlines' new direct flight to Antalya, which will begin on April 15. This destination is popular with vacationers looking to enjoy the first longer sunny days of the year. In addition to beach destinations, city breaks are also very popular over Easter. Direct flights are available from Dortmund to attractive cities such as Budapest, Istanbul, and Split, ideal for spring explorations.
Among the most popular destinations during the holiday season is Palma de Mallorca, which is served by up to three flights daily from Dortmund. Wizz Air is also experiencing high demand for flights to Katowice, Tirana, and Bucharest. Given the expected increase in passenger numbers, Dortmund Airport recommends all travelers allow sufficient time for travel to the airport, check-in, and security checks. It is recommended to arrive at the airport at least 2,5 hours before the scheduled departure time to ensure a relaxed start to their journey.
