The route from Fulda to Frankfurt Airport
Fulda lies about 118 km from Frankfurt Airport, a drive of roughly 81 minutes. The car leaves the city westwards on the B 27 and joins the A 66 near Neuhof, which carries some 69 km of the journey.
The A 66 follows the Kinzig valley between the Vogelsberg and the Spessart, past Schluechtern and the imperial town of Gelnhausen, then merges into the A 3 near Hanau for the final run to the airport exit.
Pick-up in Fulda
We collect you at your address in the baroque city, whether near Universitaetsplatz, in Kohlhaus, Horas or Lehnerz, or in the neighbouring communities of Petersberg, Kuenzell and Eichenzell. Hotels around the cathedral and the station forecourt are served directly.
Where the historic centre is closed to traffic the car stops at the nearest permitted point, usually a few steps from the entrance, and the driver comes to fetch your bags.
Arriving at the departure terminal
The car pulls up at the departures kerb of your terminal, Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, according to your airline. Naming the airline at booking saves you a ride on the Skyline shuttle between terminals.
After unloading it is only a short walk to the check-in rows in that hall.
Fulda and the Rhoen
Fulda is Hesse's baroque city: the cathedral of St Salvator above the tomb of Saint Boniface, the city palace with its orangery and a run of princely townhouses all date from the 18th-century prince-abbots, while the Michaelskirche next door goes back to Carolingian times.
Beyond the city the Rhoen begins, crowned by the Wasserkuppe, Hesse's highest hill and the birthplace of German gliding; to the east the Point Alpha memorial marks the former inner-German border. As an ICE junction on the Hanover-Wuerzburg high-speed line, Fulda is also the interchange for the whole region.
Travel tips for this run
Commuter traffic on the A 66 towards Hanau and Offenbach is the one thing that can slow the morning run, which is why we build a time buffer into early departures.
In winter Fulda and Schluechtern are often noticeably colder than the Rhine-Main plain, something we take into account when setting the pick-up time for pre-dawn flights.

Transfer, taxi or train from Fulda?
The ICE from Fulda to Frankfurt is quick, but you still have to reach the station with your luggage and then change onto the S-Bahn for the airport, two extra stages at five in the morning. A taxi drives the same A 66 yet charges by the meter, so delays in the Kinzig valley show up in the final amount. A rental car adds terminal parking fees and a drop-off in airport traffic. A fixed-price transfer collects you at your door in Fulda and delivers you to the terminal kerb with no changes on the way.

Show fixed price →Frequently asked questions
How long does the transfer from Fulda to Frankfurt Airport take?
The drive from Fulda to Frankfurt Airport takes about 81 minutes for 118 km in normal traffic. Your driver adds roughly 15 minutes of buffer for rush hour and roadworks.
How early should I leave Fulda for Frankfurt Airport?
Leave Fulda about 3 h 36 min before departure for a Schengen flight, or about 4 h 36 min for long-haul. That is 81 minutes of driving, 15 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 Fulda to Frankfurt Airport?
The fixed price for the 118 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 Fulda. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Fulda.
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 Fulda 15 minutes of waiting are included, and each further quarter hour is charged at the rate stated in the terms.
