Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from CGN to ESS last minute?
When it comes to booking your flights, it's better to be prepared. While it's possible to pick up a deal on a Cologne - Bonn Airport to ESS flight at the last minute, fares usually don't get cheaper as the date of departure nears. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the sweet spot to book a domestic flight is between 28 – 35 days ahead. For international trips it's three to four months.

Essen (ESS-Essen - Mulheim), Duesseldorf Intl. Airport (DUS) and Dortmund Airport (DTM) are your options when traveling from Cologne to Muelheim an der Ruhr.
