Route facts

The route to Frankfurt Airport

Augsburg to Frankfurt Airport is around 354 kilometres and roughly three and a half to three and three-quarter hours of driving. From Swabia the route runs along the A8 towards Stuttgart, then via the A5 through Baden and Hesse to the airport grounds near Frankfurt.

The journey is entirely within Germany, with no border and no vignette. We deliberately factor in the congestion-prone stretches of the A8 around Stuttgart so there is ample time for check-in at Frankfurt.

Pickup in Augsburg

The driver collects you directly at your address in Augsburg, whether near the Maximilianstraße, in Lechhausen, or in the neighbouring towns of Stadtbergen, Gersthofen or Friedberg. We load your luggage at the starting point, so there is no need to head to the main station first.

The pickup time follows your Frankfurt departure and the traffic on the A8 – you provide the flight number and destination, and we handle the rest.

Arriving at Frankfurt Airport

In Frankfurt we set you down directly at your departure terminal, Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, depending on your airline. That saves the walk from a car park or long-distance station, leaving only a short stretch to check-in. It holds equally for your transfer between Augsburg and Frankfurt Airport.

Travellers who would otherwise fly from Munich Airport often choose Frankfurt for particular intercontinental connections – a direct ride to the terminal makes that choice comfortable.

Getting to know Augsburg

Augsburg is one of Germany's oldest cities, tracing its origins to the Roman foundation of Augusta Vindelicorum. It is world-famous for the Fuggerei, the oldest social housing complex in the world, founded by Jakob Fugger in 1521, and for its historic water management system, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Golden Hall in Elias Holl's town hall, the links to Leopold Mozart and Bertolt Brecht, and the celebrated Augsburger Puppenkiste marionette theatre shape the city's cultural profile. People heading to the airport from here often travel on business or to long-haul destinations out of Frankfurt.

Travel tips for this route

Heavy traffic and roadworks are common on the A8 around Stuttgart; a time buffer and an early start help you arrive relaxed. As the route is entirely within Germany, your usual travel document in your hand luggage is enough.

For very early departures, setting off overnight pays off, when the A8 and the A5 are far clearer than during the day.

Comparison

Transfer, taxi or train from Augsburg?

The fixed-price transfer takes you from your door to the terminal with no changes – unlike the train, which from Augsburg means several changes via Stuttgart or Mannheim to Frankfurt, and unlike a rental car, which adds parking costs at the airport. A regular taxi over 354 kilometres runs on a distance-and-time meter, whereas our price is set before you travel.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long does the transfer from Augsburg to Frankfurt Airport take?

The drive from Augsburg to Frankfurt Airport takes about 224 minutes for 354 km in normal traffic. Your driver adds roughly 45 minutes of buffer for rush hour and roadworks.

How early should I leave Augsburg for Frankfurt Airport?

Leave Augsburg about 6 h 29 min before departure for a Schengen flight, or about 7 h 29 min for long-haul. That is 224 minutes of driving, 45 minutes of traffic buffer and 2 or 3 hours at the terminal. The booking form proposes the pickup time for you.

How much is a transfer from Augsburg to Frankfurt Airport?

The fixed price for the 354 km route is shown in the booking form before you book and never changes afterwards — regardless of traffic, time of day, weekday or how long the drive actually takes. It depends on the vehicle class and the distance, not on a meter.

How much luggage fits in each vehicle?

The sedan classes take 2 large suitcases plus 2 cabin bags; the Business Van takes 7 suitcases plus 5 cabin bags for up to 8 passengers. Declare oversized items such as skis, a golf bag or a pushchair when booking so the right class is dispatched.

Is this a taxi or a chauffeur service?

This is a chauffeur service: the journey is booked in advance, the price is fixed before you book and no meter runs. Your driver wears a suit, greets you by name and helps with the luggage — in the Business and First Class categories it is a limousine service with a Mercedes E- or S-Class. You hail a taxi at a rank; a chauffeur is booked to the minute in Augsburg. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Augsburg.

Can I pay the driver by card?

Card payment is accepted directly in the vehicle — as is cash or paying online in advance, and business customers can be invoiced. You receive a receipt with VAT shown either way.

Can I travel with an infant or child seat?

A child seat, booster or infant carrier is selected during booking and fitted by the driver before pickup. State the child's age so the correct size group is installed.

How does free cancellation work?

Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before the agreed pickup time. After that a cancellation fee may apply; at the pickup address in Augsburg 15 minutes of waiting are included, and each further quarter hour is charged at the rate stated in the terms.
