Arrivals go like this. We track the inbound flight, park before it lands, and meet you past customs with a name board. Ninety minutes of waiting are included, and the clock starts when the aircraft is on the ground, not when a timetable printed months ago said it would be. Bags get carried. Departures from Rodenkirchen run in reverse: the leaving time comes from your gate closing and the state of the road that morning.

Getting there another way

Check bahn.de before you book us. Rodenkirchen is not in what the airport publishes about its direct trains, so whether one runs is a question for the Deutsche Bahn planner, which knows the full timetable. That might still beat us on price. What we can state without hedging is our own number: approx. 30 min door to door at €110, agreed before you fly.

A taxi from Cologne Bonn Airport to Rodenkirchen runs on the Cologne meter, and inside the Cologne taxi area that tariff is binding. Roughly €65 to €85, by our estimate. An app will also get you to Rodenkirchen. It will quote a price that changes between the moment you check it and the moment you land, and it will not know your flight is ninety minutes late. That is the trade. We quote €110 once, and the 90 free minutes after touchdown are already inside it.

Station names, lines and frequencies come from each airport's own travel pages and from the published service table for its station. We quote no ticket prices, because we could not verify current ones.

Questions

How much is a transfer from Cologne Bonn Airport to Rodenkirchen?
The transfer costs €110 in a Business Class saloon, all in. That covers tolls, parking, 90 minutes of waiting after you land, and VAT. Electric Class €110. First Class €200. The six-seat Business Van €130. You are paying for the car, so three passengers cost what one costs.
How many passengers and bags fit in each class?
Business Class (a 2026 Mercedes-Benz E-Class), Electric Class (a 2026 Mercedes-Benz EQS) and First Class (a 2026 Mercedes-Benz S-Class) each take up to three passengers, with room for 2 large cases and 2 carry-on. The Business Van takes more. A 2026 Mercedes-Benz V-Class, it seats up to six with 6 large cases and 6 carry-on, and costs €130 to Rodenkirchen. Skis or a pushchair? Mention them when you book.
How long does it take from Cologne Bonn Airport to Rodenkirchen?
The drive takes about 30 min in normal traffic, over roughly 20 km, which is 12 miles. For the outbound leg we work backwards from your gate-closing time and look at the road that morning and set the pickup from what it tells us.
Where exactly does the driver meet me at Cologne Bonn Airport?
The meeting point is past customs. Your driver stands there with your name on a board, at Terminal 1 or Terminal 2, and goes by your flight number to know which one. Luggage is carried to the car, and the drive to Rodenkirchen starts from there.
Is there a train from Cologne Bonn Airport to Rodenkirchen?
A direct train from Cologne Bonn Airport to Rodenkirchen is not one we can confirm: Rodenkirchen is not named in what the airport publishes about its direct trains. The Deutsche Bahn planner on bahn.de shows whether a through service runs on your day. By road it is approx. 30 min without a change, at €110.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
The price does not move when a flight is late. We watch the flight from the moment it leaves its origin airport and move the pickup with it, which means a two-hour delay costs you nothing at all, because the 90 minutes of waiting after landing were inside the €110 before any of it happened. Diverted to another city? Then we talk to you and work it out. No no-show fee for an aircraft that went somewhere else.
Can I cancel or change the booking?
Cancelling is free up to 6 hours before pickup. Bookings that hold a car for a whole day, which means hourly hire, full days, weddings and events, need 24 hours instead, because by that point the driver's day belongs to you and nobody else can be given it. Changes are a different thing. A new flight number, a new time, a new address: free, at any point, and usually what people actually needed.
How do I pay?
You can pay the driver in cash or by card, and the booking page shows any other option open to your booking. Company accounts get one monthly invoice with the VAT stated and every journey tagged to a cost centre, which is the version finance departments ask for. Passengers on an account never touch a payment at all.
Can you take a wheelchair, a child seat or a pet to Rodenkirchen?
Child and booster seats are free. Tell us the ages when you book. A folding wheelchair travels in any class, and where a passenger needs room to transfer across and not a saloon door to negotiate, the six-seat Business Van is the sensible choice and costs no more than asking for it. We do not run a ramp-equipped vehicle as standard. Ask, and you get a straight answer about whether we cover it ourselves or arrange it. Assistance dogs always travel. Other animals travel too. Tell us what, and how big.
How far ahead should I book?
Booking 12 hours ahead is comfortable. That gets you the class you asked for, not whatever happens to be free. Shorter notice is often fine, so ask before assuming. The exception is a disruption, when a cancelled bank of flights puts several hundred people on the same phones inside the same twenty minutes, and how far ahead you booked becomes the only thing separating a car from a queue.
