Security control

On the way to the gate, every passenger has to pass the security check. Here it is checked whether you are carrying dangerous or prohibited items or prohibited liquids. The Federal Police is responsible for the security checks at Düsseldorf Airport, which rely on the support of a private security service provider to carry them out.

Waiting times

The waiting times at the security checkpoints depend on the time of day, the number of passengers and the staffing of the control lanes. Experience has shown that longer waiting times can be expected on the following days:

1. Start of vacation in North Rhine Westphalia and the Netherlands.

2. At the beginning of so-called "long weekends" and before public holidays.

The current waiting times at the three security checkpoints are displayed under "Departure" and in the DUS app.
