Duesseldorf Mayor proposes closer cooperation between Duesseldorf and Cologne airports

26 February, 2019

Duesseldorf's Mayor Thomas Geisel proposed closer cooperation between Duesseldorf Airport and Cologne/Bonn Airport to improve airport congestion and synergies between the two locations (Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger, 25-Feb-2019). "The two airports would complement each other well, Duesseldorf as a business airport and Cologne with its high cargo offer", Mr Geisel said, adding cooperation would also "prevent Lufthansa from using its dominant position to play off both airports against each other".
