One-Stop Flights from Germanwings: Flight info

Germanwings operates over 500 flight connections throughout Europe, some of which require a stop-over. Change in Cologne, Stuttgart, Berlin or Hamburg and fly on to your destination. Catching a connecting flight is simple and easy – like Germanwings as a whole.

Please remember to check the entry provisions (visa or passport) for your destination and connecting airport before you board the flight.

"Connecting flights" mean Germanwings-scheduled connections that are offered in the booking process.

When you catch a connecting flight you only pay the luggage surcharge and any possible excess luggage surcharge once for the whole route from departure airport to connecting airport and on to the destination airport. You check in your luggage at the departure airport and then change planes without any hassle at the connecting airport. Your luggage is checked through to the destination airport.

If you leave from a Germanwings departure airport in Germany (apart from Rostock and Zweibrücken) and change planes in Cologne, Stuttgart, Berlin or Hamburg, you will receive your boarding card for the whole journey at the departure airport.

For all other flights changing in Cologne or Stuttgart you will receive the boarding card for the connecting flight at the Germanwings transfer desk in the gate area at the airport you change planes in. Please follow the signs. If you change in Berlin, you receive your boarding card for the onward flight at the Germanwings Check-In desk in the departure hall there. If you change in Hamburg, you receive your boarding card for the onward flight at the gate of the connecting flight.

Due to customs regulations it is unfortunately impossible for us to check your luggage all the way through on some routes with a connection.

For flights from non-Schengen and non-EU departure airports such as Bucharest, Istanbul, Izmir, Moscow, Pula, Split and Zagreb with connections in Berlin we would ask you to pick up your luggage on arrival in Berlin and proceed to the Germanwings transfer desk in the main hall, where you will receive the boarding card for your connecting flight. The transfer desk is well signposted. It is next to the normal check-in desks just 100 metres from the luggage retrieval hall.
