Travel: Flights to Stuttgart from Birmingham (bhx)

Stuttgart has one airport, located in Leinfelden-Echterdingen. Various airlines serve direct flight connections between Stuttgart and major German and European cities. It will not be difficult to book a flight to Stuttgart from outside Europe connecting through a major hub such as London Heathrow or Paris Charles de Gaulles. Fares usually don't differ if you fly into Frankfurt, Munich, Hamburg or Stuttgart. Lufthansa has an agreement with Deutsche Bahn/German rail and your commuter flight from Frankfurt could be actually a train ride. This is very convienent if you head for Stuttgart CBD.

Delta Airlines has a direct service from Atlanta to Stuttgart. Depending on the success the route will maintain service, but considering the US Military Overseas Headquarters is located here, it seems most likely..

You'll most likely want to go to the center of Stuttgart but are now standing somewhat outside at the airport in Leinfelden-Echterdingen. The best way is the Public Transport which is clean, cheap and safe.
