Cheap flights Liverpool – Frankfurt

November is the month when fares on this route tend to drop, and the price calendar shows the spread across September, October, November, December, January, February, May and June. Late autumn and the quieter weeks after the New Year are good value; December fills up as people head to Frankfurt for the Christmas markets, and the summer months are busier. Midweek departures on a Tuesday or Wednesday tend to cost less than Friday or Sunday, and booking a couple of months ahead gives you more choice of connections. School holidays in the UK push prices up, so if your dates are flexible, move them by a week.

Nothing flies Liverpool to Frankfurt non-stop, so every ticket is a connecting one, and the airline you pick decides where you change. Easyjet is the low-cost option, with fares that cover your seat and a small cabin bag, and extras such as a hold bag or a chosen seat added at booking. Aer Lingus and Emerald Airlines route you through Ireland, with Emerald running regional services under the Aer Lingus banner, and Loganair Limited covers UK regional legs. On full-service tickets a checked bag is often part of the fare; on low-cost ones it usually is not. Compare the total, including bags and the length of the layover, before you choose.

Frankfurt is served by two airports, and they sit far apart. Frankfurt International is the main gateway, close to the city, with frequent trains into the centre; Hahn Airport lies out in the countryside and is reached by coach, so allow much more time for the transfer. Check which airport your ticket names before you plan the last leg. From Frankfurt International, trains and the suburban rail run to the main station through the day, and taxis wait outside the terminals. From Hahn, coaches are the usual way in and they follow a timetable, so a late landing can leave you waiting. If you arrive at night, sort your onward transport before you fly.
