Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Bremen is served by 4 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Bremen Airport (BRE), 3 km (2 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,642 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Hannover Airport (HAJ, 90 km), Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport (HAM, 100 km), Sea-Airport Cuxhaven/Nordholz / Nordholz Naval Airbase (FCN, 78 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bremen Airport | BRE | 3 km (2 mi) | 8,642 ft | 14 ft |
| Hannover Airport | HAJ | 90 km (56 mi) | 12,434 ft | 183 ft |
| Hamburg Helmut Schmidt Airport | HAM | 100 km (62 mi) | 12,028 ft | 53 ft |
| Sea-Airport Cuxhaven/Nordholz / Nordholz Naval Airbase (regional) | FCN | 78 km (48 mi) | 8,002 ft | 74 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,642 ft, BRE handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 14 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
