Nuremberg Airport (German: Flughafen Nürnberg) is the international airport of the Franconian metropolitan area of Nuremberg and the second-busiest airport in Bavaria. The airport is ranked 10th among German airports and 67th in Europe. It is also a hub for Air Berlin - Germany's second largest airline. In 2006 more than 4 million passengers are expected.

Ground transportation

The airport is located 7 km (5 miles) north of the city centre. The U-Bahn (Metro) line U2 connects the airport with the centre of the city every 10 to 15 minutes, and takes only 12 minutes to reach the Hauptbahnhof (Central Railway Station) and the nearby Altstadt (historic old town). Because of the airport's close-in location and its direct connections to local streets, it is possible to walk or ride a bicycle from nearby neighborhoods right up to the terminal.
