North Rhine-Westphalia: First day of vacation: again crowds expected at airports

If you start your vacation by plane on Saturday, you will probably need a lot of time again - and strong nerves: there can be long queues. It could be comparatively relaxed on the streets.

Düsseldorf (dpa / lnw) - On the first day of school holidays on Saturday, the large airports in NRW could get full again. The Verdi union and the operating companies have been warning of queues at the weekend for days. Meanwhile, no major chaos is to be expected on the streets.

Since many people are flying on vacation again, the ADAC recently analyzed that the car is losing some of its importance for the journey compared to the last two Corona years. In addition, not everyone would leave immediately in the first few weeks. Travel is more likely to be spread over the entire summer vacation.

On Friday - the last day of school - there were already long queues at the security controls and check-in counters at Cologne/Bonn and Düsseldorf airports.
