When to fly

Lufthansa operates alongside its regional subsidiaries Lufthansa City Airlines and Lufthansa Cityline as a full-service carrier where meals and checked baggage are typically included in the fare.

Arriving — Frankfurt
Frankfurt International is close enough for a quick train ride into the city centre with frequent ICE and S-Bahn services running throughout the day. Hahn Airport sits further away and requires a longer bus transfer, so you should plan extra time if your flight lands there rather than at Frankfurt Main. Both airports have regular transport links, but the journey feels quite different depending on which one you use.
