I am flying to EDDK on Monday and wondered if anyone has been recently and had any tips or advice. I have not flown into EDDK before and it will be an IFR flight.
Thanks for any advice.

They are pretty tight on parking space especially at night. ATC will give you radar vectors instead of full procedures, the train station is at the main terminal, about 15 minutes walking distance from the GAT.
I have been many times. The handling agent is excellent and will do everything for you. Allow plenty of time to get through the formalities. Hangelar is much easier, if arrival time allows.
Hi All,
Looking at Koln/Bonn as a possible enroute tech stop from UK Thursday in case of bad weather in the Luxembourg area.
I understand it’ll be pretty expensive, do I just drop them an email; https://www.bac-cologne.com/en/there-for-you/contact
If you want to have more information, yes. Otherwise, German major airports don‘t require PPR or prior notice.
Hangelar is much easier,
Concur – Unless you definitely require procedures.
You can always, if need be, use at procedure at Cologne and then divert to Bonn.
In my experience, Bonn Hangelar, is friendly, cheaper and more pleasant.

Can you clear customs there? From non-Schengen?
Yes: I’ve cleared customs a few times at Bonn Hangelar.
An email request was all that was necessary.
