How to get to ICAMS:
From Düsseldorf International Airport: download as pdf

If you arrive at Düsseldorf International Airport, you can reach us either by Taxi (a 40-minute ride), by local trains (RE or S-Bahn) or by car. Taxis are always available at the central arrival gates.
The terminals are connected to the Airport Railway Station ("Bahnhof Düsseldorf Flughafen" ) by the SkyTrain, which commutes between the terminal and the "Flughafen" airport railway station at 3½ to 7 minute intervals from 3:45 a.m. until 0:45 a.m. daily. The journey between the two end stops, the "Bahnhof Düsseldorf Flughafen" railway station and "Terminal C," is 6½ minutes. Should you not have a valid ticket, you are required to obtain a short-range fare ticket in order to ride on the SkyTrain (or on substitute buses). Ticket vending machines are located at the SkyTrain stations.
The fare for getting to and from the airport is covered by the airfare ticket at some travel operators and airlines. For more detailed information, please contact your travel agent directly.
Should you have to buy a ticket (about 12,00 €) for public transport (VRR), you will find ticket vending machines in the SkyTrain terminal or the Airport Railway Station. For getting from Düsseldorf Airport to ICAMS you need a Zone D ticket. Please make sure that you have sufficient small change or bills, as these machines only accept EC-cards and cash, but no credit cards. Public transport (VRR) tickets also cover the Sky Train fare.
At the airport railway station you have to take a local train “Regionalexpress”, RE1, RE6 or S1 into the direction of either Dortmund, Hamm, or Minden. You can download the time tables of the S1 on our website. You can plan your individual connection in advance on the VRR webpage.
Please note that the faster IC-type or ICE-type trains may not be used with tickets for local trains. However, you can buy tickets for these trains online under here.
