Route facts

The route to Frankfurt Airport

From Pforzheim to Frankfurt Airport is around 155 kilometres, a drive of roughly one hour and 45 minutes. From the Goldstadt at the meeting point of the Enz, Nagold and Wuerm rivers, the route runs via Ettlingen and Karlsruhe onto the A 5, which heads straight north.

From Karlsruhe the A 5 stays the single spine towards Mannheim and on to the Frankfurter Kreuz interchange. We set the pickup time so the morning build-up around Karlsruhe and the airport interchange never comes between you and your flight.

Pickup in Pforzheim

We collect you at a fixed price directly at your address in Pforzheim, whether in the centre, in Broetzingen or out towards Ispringen, Kieselbronn or Eisingen. The driver arrives ahead of the agreed time so there is no rush loading luggage.

The price is fixed when you book and does not change with traffic on the A 5 or the early hour of your departure.

Arriving at the terminal

At the airport the driver drops you right in front of the correct departure terminal, Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, matched to your airline. That spares you the changes and long walks that come with train or coach.

For an early departure out of Pforzheim, that guaranteed drop-off time in front of the terminal is the decisive advantage over changing trains in Karlsruhe or Mannheim.

Pforzheim and its surroundings

Pforzheim has carried the nickname Goldstadt, gold city, since the 18th century: it is the heart of Germany's jewellery and watchmaking industry, and the Jewellery Museum in the Reuchlinhaus shows pieces spanning five millennia. Travellers on business in the trade often set off from here.

Pforzheim is also the gateway to the northern Black Forest: the famous Westweg long-distance trail to Basel begins at the edge of town. Many of the passengers we take to the airport come from the surrounding Enz valley.

Travel tips for this route

The A 5 between Karlsruhe and Frankfurt is one of the busiest motorways in the region, so for a morning flight a slightly earlier start from Pforzheim pays off. As a rough rule, plan a comfortable buffer on top of the pure driving time.

Give us your flight number when you book and the pickup time in Pforzheim will be matched precisely to your departure.

Also bookable as its own route: Frankfurt Airport to Kieselbronn (163 km, at a fixed price with real drive-time facts). Every route, fixed price and vehicle class at FR Transfer.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

The drive from Pforzheim to Frankfurt Airport takes about 105 minutes for 155 km in normal traffic. Your driver adds roughly 20 minutes of buffer for rush hour and roadworks.

How early should I leave Pforzheim for Frankfurt Airport?

Leave Pforzheim about 4 h 5 min before departure for a Schengen flight, or about 5 h 5 min for long-haul. That is 105 minutes of driving, 20 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 Pforzheim to Frankfurt Airport?

The fixed price for the 155 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 Pforzheim. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Pforzheim.

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