Bremen airport to Hamburg cruise terminal

Have you checked on the transfers from your cruise line?

If the cruise offers a transfer system that helps guarantee you'll get on board, then it would be worth paying extra. The connection by public tram and train from Bremen Airport to Hamburg Hbf (main train station) takes 1.5 - 2 hours, so don't dawdle. At Hamburg station, jump in a taxi. How to Look Up Train Schedules Online gives you the DB train schedule link and tips for using it.

Which Hamburg cruise terminal? Altona or Hafencity?

In either way start right at the curb of the arrivals hall of Bremen airport and take tram line 6 to the Central Train station (Hauptbahnhof). Journey time is 16 minutes.

From Bremen Hauptbahnhof (Hbf) take an IC or ICE train to Hamburg. Journey time is approx. 1 hour. For the cruise terminal in Hafencity exit at Hamburg Hauptbahnhof (Hbf) and take a taxi. For the cruise terminal in Altona continue on the IC or ICE train until the terminal station, Hamburg-Altona and take a cab from there.

Great information. Thanks to all.

Four hours Bremen airport to Hamburg ship! I hope you have carry-on (carry-off) luggage and make every connection. I need to have my wife read your post; she'll think my schedules are "leisurely".
