Getting there

Delft is easily accessible for international and domestic travellers, with well-connected airports and efficient public transport options linking the city to major destinations.

AIRPLANE
Schiphol International Airport is the main airport in The Netherlands. All the well-known airlines are flying from and to Schiphol on a daily base. Transportation from Schiphol Airport to Delft is possible by public transport or the special taxi service called Schiphol Travel Taxi. There is a direct train connection between Schiphol International Airport and Delft railway station (plan your train journey). Travelling time is about 40 minutes; the frequency is 5 times per hour.

Apart from Schiphol International Airport there is the smaller and more Western European orientated Rotterdam The Hague Airport. The airport is approximately a 15-minute drive from the centre of Delft.

The TU Delft Campus is within walking distance of train station Delft Campus. It is also accesible from the central train station, Delft Station, via bus line 69; you should get off at the Delft, TU Aula bus stop.
