Canary Islands from Cologne – Year-Round Sunshine with Non-Stop Connection
When fog hangs over the Rhine in the Rhineland, the Canary Islands enjoy 20 degrees or more. From Cologne/Bonn Airport (CGN) you reach Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote non-stop in around four and a half hours – served mainly by Eurowings, plus seasonal additional operators. Because the islands lie off Africa, the destination is warm all year round and therefore popular from Cologne even in winter. Getting to CGN is convenient by S-Bahn S13/S19 directly under the terminal or via the A59. Discover your package holiday or your flight to the Canary Islands from Cologne here.
