Is 60 minutes enough for connecting in Dusseldorf?
On 1st November, I will have my first flight connection (ever, actually) in Dusseldorf, for this reason I am quite stressed about it and I would like to ask some questions. I will travel with an hand luggage that I will bring in the cabin and I am an EU (italian) citizen. My flight is on a single booking, with Eurowings.

60 minutes connection
EW9732 11:50 Dusseldorf - 13:40 Krakow
I would like to ask how transferring in Dusseldorf work - I read a lot of topics about this but I would like to ask again (flight may be in the same Terminal or in different ones, it seems it would be A or B). It seems it is very easy after you get off bus/plane, but I would love to hear from someone. Since I will go from Schengen to Schengen flight, I guess I won't have a passport check (and also security check?) while transferring and I can go directly to the next gate? Is it enough time?
Since the booking is made with a single ticket, will Eurowings somehow "wait" for me if there will be a short delay? Or will I have some sort of protection? I booked a ticket with the SMART fare but I can't read anything about this specifically.

Is 1 hour enough to make a connecting flight?
Connections of less than an hour usually are possible if everyone in your party is fit and healthy, and you do not have gate-checked items such as a stroller. For peace of mind, particularly when connecting in a large city, try to schedule a layover of at least 60 minutes.Is 1 hour enough connection time?
The recommended layover time for domestic flights is normally one hour. However, as previously stated, you may require longer if your flights are booked with two different airlines, if you are traveling to a very busy airport or if you require special assistance.What is the ideal gap of time for connecting flights?
Domestic are usually 30-60 minutes. International will be longer due to immigration/customs requirements. Larger, congested airports will require a longer time than a small airport. Booking systems typically will not allow a connection below the MCT.How busy is Dusseldorf airport?
This makes D\xfcsseldorf the 23rd busiest airport in Europe. There are about 75 airlines that fly from the destination to 179 locations across the world. There is an average of 750 takeoffs as well landings every day to cope with the high number of passengers.Dusseldorf, Germany Walking Tour (4k Ultra HD/60fps) – With Captions
