A short transfer is a gift after a long flight- these airports are a stone’s throw from the city. There’s nothing worse than landing at your long-awaited holiday destination only to find a lengthy transfer from the airport to the city.

Ever flown into Paris-Vatry Airport? If you have, you’ll have been surprised to find yourself around 160 km away from the City of Lights. Similar situations can be found at ‘Munich West,’ an airport that is 120 km from Munich, and at Frankfurt Hahn, 125 km from the city of Frankfurt and closer, in fact, to Luxembourg. If you’d rather not face a two-hour coach ride at the end of your journey, opting for a city with a very close airport is a much better bet.
