Route facts

Frankfurt to Lichtenrade, skirting the city

It is roughly 560 kilometres from Frankfurt Airport to Lichtenrade, about five hours thirty-three on the road. The A5, A4 and A9 carry you north, but instead of entering Berlin the driver takes the southern ring and the B96 through Mahlow straight to the city's edge.

That approach is why Lichtenrade is reached sooner than several more central districts: the car never touches the A100 at all.

Your driver waits in arrivals

In Frankfurt the driver meets you in the arrivals hall of your terminal with a name sign. The flight is monitored, so a late landing or a slow baggage belt is already accounted for.

Arriving at your Lichtenrade address

The car stops at your door at the end – in the quiet residential streets around Alt-Lichtenrade, on Bahnhofstrasse, or in the estates towards Mariendorf. After a long journey the luggage never has to go through the S-Bahn.

Lichtenrade at a glance

Lichtenrade is the southernmost part of Tempelhof-Schöneberg and reads more like a Brandenburg village than like Berlin: fieldstone church and pond in the old centre, detached houses with gardens, allotment colonies and a great deal of quiet.

People arriving here are usually visiting family or friends rather than checking into a hotel; there is little tourism and a lot of neighbourhood. The S2 runs into town one way, and Brandenburg starts the other.

Practical notes on arrival

Give the flight number, terminal and exact house number when booking – in these long estate streets the number matters more than the street name. For a night arrival, a quick message to your hosts saves someone staying awake for nothing.

Travelling with children, we plan breaks along the A9: five and a half hours in one go is the real challenge for small passengers.

Also bookable as its own route: Frankfurt Airport to Mariendorf (556 km, at a fixed price with real drive-time facts). Every route, fixed price and vehicle class at FR Transfer.

Comparison

Transfer, taxi or train from Lichtenrade?

Public transport never ends at the door in Lichtenrade: after the ICE and Hauptbahnhof there is still an S-Bahn, a change and a walk with luggage through residential streets. A taxi across 560 kilometres runs on the meter and few drivers on the Frankfurt rank will take the job, whereas the transfer is a fixed price agreed in advance and starts with a name sign. A rental car is the third option, but it means a one-way rental plus five and a half hours of driving after a flight – and then finding a house number in a dark suburban street.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

The drive from Frankfurt Airport to Lichtenrade takes about 333 minutes for 560 km in normal traffic. That is measured from the meeting point inside the terminal, not from touchdown.

Where does my driver meet me at Terminal 1 or 3?

The meeting point is the arrivals hall of your terminal — your driver stands just beyond the customs exit holding a name sign and walks you to the vehicle. The terminal follows from the flight number you give when booking, and a diversion to 1 or 3 still gets you found.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

Pickup is linked to your flight number and shifts automatically with the actual landing time — at no extra charge. 60 minutes of waiting are included after touchdown so baggage reclaim and passport control are covered.

How much is a transfer from Frankfurt Airport to Lichtenrade?

The fixed price for the 560 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 waits for you at the terminal with a name sign. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Lichtenrade.

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.
