Route facts

The route to Frankfurt Airport

From Bonn to Frankfurt Airport is around 161 kilometres, a drive of roughly one hour and 50 minutes. From the former West German capital on the Rhine, the route runs via Troisdorf and Bad Honnef onto the A 3, which crosses the Westerwald towards Limburg an der Lahn.

From Limburg the A 3 is the single link all the way to the airport. We time the departure from Bonn so you avoid the morning traffic in the south of Cologne and around Frankfurt.

Pickup in Bonn

We collect you at a fixed price at your address in Bonn, whether in the city centre, in Duisdorf, in Bad Godesberg or at the UN campus. The driver arrives in good time so luggage can be loaded without rushing.

The price is set when you book and stays the same no matter how heavy the traffic on the A 3 on your departure day.

Arriving at the terminal

At the airport the driver sets you down right in front of Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, depending on your airline. That spares you the change from the ICE and the walk through the long-distance station.

For international connections, being dropped directly at the departure terminal is a real time saving compared with the train.

Bonn and its surroundings

Bonn was the seat of the West German government until 1990 and remains a second political centre and a UN location; companies such as Deutsche Post DHL and Telekom are headquartered here. Business travellers therefore come often.

Bonn is also the birthplace of Ludwig van Beethoven: the Beethoven House, the Museum Mile and the Electoral Palace draw culture visitors to the Rhine. Many of our passengers set off from the centre or the districts near the river.

Travel tips for this route

The A 3 through the Westerwald is a major long-distance link and can back up in the morning before the Frankfurter Kreuz, so a slightly earlier start from Bonn brings calm. Plan a comfortable buffer on top of the pure driving time.

Give us your flight number when you book, and the pickup time in Bonn will be matched precisely to your departure.

Also bookable as its own route: Frankfurt Airport to Duisdorf (158 km, at a fixed price with real drive-time facts). Every route, fixed price and vehicle class at FR Transfer.

Comparison

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

The drive from Bonn to Frankfurt Airport takes about 111 minutes for 161 km in normal traffic. Your driver adds roughly 20 minutes of buffer for rush hour and roadworks.

How early should I leave Bonn for Frankfurt Airport?

Leave Bonn about 4 h 11 min before departure for a Schengen flight, or about 5 h 11 min for long-haul. That is 111 minutes of driving, 20 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 Bonn to Frankfurt Airport?

The fixed price for the 161 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 Bonn. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Bonn.

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 Bonn 15 minutes of waiting are included, and each further quarter hour is charged at the rate stated in the terms.
