    You need to focus in a bit first.

    You choose 3 airports all 100-140km away in 3 different directions.

    Then you need to decide if you want Cheap or Fast, because you won't get both. Fast won't be cheap and cheap won't be fast. So which is more important to you. It also matters what time you come in. There may be some options that are not available or practical if you say arrive at 2AM in the morning on a Sunday without you having to wait another 3-4 hours.

    Without going through all of the possible combinations. Generally driving will be the fastest and renting your own car would be cheaper than using a taxi service. Then comes public transportation. Depending on the exact route trains can sometimes be quicker than driving. A bus will generally be the cheapest, but also take the longest time.

    You may find the ground transportation the same price from all 3 airports, so if you want cheap you may need to see which airport is the cheapest to fly into.

    Did it possibly come to mind that you ask the Campus if they have a recommended way to get to Campus.

    Your Main issue is getting from Seigen Train or Bus Station to the Campus.

    WARNING careful how you spell. Siegen is a different place. East of Frankfurt

    Your Basic German should be enough and English speakers are easy to find at the transportation places. Should you choose train or bus to get there.

    Seriously you have nearly the same price and ease to get to all those Airports from your home?

    LOWEST Price I could Find. 7 Euros from Dusseldorf
