From Frankfurt Airport to Lake Starnberg
FRA to Starnberg is around 424 kilometres, roughly four and a half hours on the road. The A 5 carries us south, then the A 67 and A 6 feed onto the A 8, the Bavarian trunk route past Stuttgart, Ulm and Augsburg.
Just short of Munich we leave the main axis, skirt the city on the A 99 and A 96, and drop into the Fünfseenland near Gauting. The last few kilometres down to the shore are country road — the quietest stretch of the whole trip.
Meet and greet in arrivals
Your driver waits in the arrivals hall of your terminal with a name sign, right beyond the baggage-reclaim exit. We track the flight number live, so a delayed landing simply moves the meeting time with it.
After the greeting the driver takes the cases and walks you to the vehicle. Landing at Frankfurt after a long-haul flight, you neither hunt for a counter nor read a timetable.
Arriving in Starnberg
Drop-off is at the address you give us: a hotel on the promenade, an apartment in Percha, a company site on the industrial estate, or a private house up in Söcking. Destinations in Pöcking, Berg or Feldafing are served too when named at booking.
If you are arriving for a sailing week or a conference, tell us the exact entrance or jetty — the driver stops where you carry the luggage the shortest distance.
What Starnberg is like
Starnberg is the district town at the northern tip of Lake Starnberg and lives off the water: the steamer landing stage, the sailing clubs, the shore promenade and a view that reaches the Alpine chain on clear föhn days. Just under 24,500 people live here, many of them commuting into Munich.
Around the lake lie Feldafing with the Rose Island, Berg with the votive chapel for King Ludwig II, and Tutzing — a circuit international visitors often cover in a single week. For many, arriving in Starnberg is the opening move of a wider Upper Bavaria trip.
Practical notes for your arrival
Book with the flight number rather than a landing time, so the driver stays informed if you are late. Groups with sports gear should flag skis or golf bags in advance so the right vehicle is sent.
After four to five hours a short break on the way is normal — just tell the driver. In high season the hotel driveways around the lake get tight, so a room number or a note about the side entrance saves minutes at the end.

Transfer, taxi or train from Starnberg?
Switching to rail after landing means carrying your bags to the long-distance station, across Munich Hauptbahnhof and onto the S-Bahn to Starnberg — on a thin late-evening timetable if you arrive at night. A metered taxi will cover the 424 kilometres, but you learn the total only at the door. A rental car means a counter queue after the flight and an unfamiliar autobahn in the dark. The fixed-price transfer starts with a name sign in arrivals and ends outside your door in Starnberg: one vehicle, one price, no changes.

Show fixed price →Frequently asked questions
How long does the transfer from Frankfurt Airport to Starnberg take?
The drive from Frankfurt Airport to Starnberg takes about 266 minutes for 424 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 Starnberg?
The fixed price for the 424 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 Starnberg.
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.
