Route facts

The route from Marburg to Frankfurt Airport

Marburg to Frankfurt Airport is 100 kilometres and around 67 minutes. The drive starts in the Lahn valley, follows the B 3 south through Lollar and picks up the A 485 and A 45 at Giessen.

From the Giessen interchange the A 5 takes over, running through the Wetterau to the Frankfurter Kreuz and on past the airport itself. Without commuter traffic this is a very predictable run, because almost all of it is motorway.

Pickup in Marburg

We collect you at your address, whether in the south of the city, up on the Lahnberge by the university hospital or in the middle of the upper town. For the steep old-town lanes we can agree a meeting point at the Pilgrimstein or the Rudolphsplatz instead.

Your driver is there before the agreed time and takes the luggage. If you are starting from one of the student residences or a company site in the north of the city, a short note about which entrance to use helps.

Arriving at your departure terminal

At the airport we stop at the departures kerb of Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, depending on your airline. Giving us the carrier at booking saves you the inter-terminal shuttle with bags.

Allow three hours before an intercontinental flight and two for a European one. Morning commuter traffic through the Wetterau towards Frankfurt can be slow, and we factor that in.

Marburg on the Lahn

Marburg has just over 73,000 inhabitants and is a university town in the fullest sense. The Philipps University was founded in 1527 as the world's first Protestant university and still shapes both the townscape and the local job market.

The landgraves' castle crowns the hill above the old town, while St Elizabeth's Church on the slope below is one of the earliest purely Gothic churches in Germany. The upper town is so steep that public lifts are part of daily life, and Marburg has long been known as one of the most accessible German cities for blind and partially sighted people.

Travel tips for this route

If you are starting in the upper town, allow extra time to reach the meeting point, because steps and cobbles are slow going with cases. The public lift at the Pilgrimstein is by far the easier way down.

Business travellers from the hospital or the pharmaceutical sites do well to book pickup before the rush hour, since traffic between the Lahnberge and the city bypass backs up in the morning.

Also bookable as its own route: Frankfurt Airport to Lahntal (119 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 Marburg?

By train from Marburg you travel via Giessen or Frankfurt main station and still have to change onto the S-Bahn for the airport, which puts your check-in at the mercy of a tight connection. A taxi over 100 kilometres runs on the meter with no figure agreed beforehand. A rental car ties you to branch opening hours and to parking charges unless you return it at the airport. The fixed-price transfer collects you at your Marburg address, drives through to the terminal kerb and is fully costed the moment you book.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

The drive from Marburg to Frankfurt Airport takes about 67 minutes for 100 km in normal traffic. Your driver adds roughly 15 minutes of buffer for rush hour and roadworks.

How early should I leave Marburg for Frankfurt Airport?

Leave Marburg about 3 h 22 min before departure for a Schengen flight, or about 4 h 22 min for long-haul. That is 67 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 Marburg to Frankfurt Airport?

The fixed price for the 100 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 Marburg. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Marburg.

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