Route facts

Messe Berlin to Frankfurt Airport

From the exhibition grounds at the Funkturm to Frankfurt Airport is around 552 kilometres, planned at about 5 hours 30 minutes. The drive starts on Messedamm, runs via the urban motorway and the AVUS to the Berlin ring, then heads south on the A 9.

From there it is the A 9, A 4, A 7 and finally A 5 past Dessau, Leipzig, Erfurt and Kassel into the Rhine-Main area. After a show closes, the Berlin section is the unpredictable part, so we deliberately set the pickup before or after the visitor surge.

Pickup on the exhibition grounds

Your driver waits at the entrance you name — Süd on Messedamm, Nord on Jafféstraße, or at the hall where your stand is. During major events access roads are closed or made one-way, so we fix the meeting point in writing beforehand.

Hotels in Charlottenburg, Wilmersdorf or along the Kurfürstendamm are on the way as well. If you are taking stand material or samples with you, tell us the volume and weight and a suitably sized vehicle turns up.

Arriving at the departure terminal

We set you down on the departures level at Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, depending on your airline, so please supply the flight number. For business travellers that means step out, check in, done.

Allow three hours before a long-haul departure and two within Europe. Against five and a half hours of driving, the departure from the grounds has to be correspondingly early — especially on the final day of a show, the buffer is worth it.

Messe Berlin: the grounds beneath the radio tower

Messe Berlin sits in Charlottenburg around the historic Funkturm, with the halls beneath the tower, the Sommergarten and the neighbouring ICC as a landmark on Messedamm. Its biggest fixtures include IFA, the ITB travel trade show, the Grüne Woche and InnoTrans.

During those weeks the hotels in Charlottenburg and Wilmersdorf are full, taxi queues are long and access is regulated. Any exhibitor standing on the pavement with crates and a wheeled case on tear-down day learns quickly what a guaranteed pickup point is worth.

Tips for trade-fair travellers

Book the outbound transfer early in the event cycle — on tear-down day thousands compete for the same vehicles, and our fixed price does not move with demand.

Name the hall and entrance rather than just Messe Berlin; the site runs to several kilometres in circumference. A stop on the A 9 is planned into a drive this long, which also helps the laptop battery.

Also bookable as its own route: Frankfurt Airport to Wilmersdorf (555 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 Messe Berlin?

By rail it would be S-Bahn or bus from the grounds to a main-line station, the run to Frankfurt, and then luggage plus exhibition material through the airport station — the worst option for an exhibitor. A metered taxi over 552 kilometres is hard to plan for an expense claim, and a rental car adds refuelling and a return before your flight. The fixed-price transfer waits at the agreed exhibition entrance, drives straight through and produces a figure that was settled before you set off.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long does the transfer from Messe Berlin to Frankfurt Airport take?

The drive from Messe Berlin to Frankfurt Airport takes about 332 minutes for 552 km in normal traffic. Your driver adds roughly 65 minutes of buffer for rush hour and roadworks.

How early should I leave Messe Berlin for Frankfurt Airport?

Leave Messe Berlin about 8 h 37 min before departure for a Schengen flight, or about 9 h 37 min for long-haul. That is 332 minutes of driving, 65 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 Messe Berlin to Frankfurt Airport?

The fixed price for the 552 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 Messe Berlin. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Messe Berlin.

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