The route to Frankfurt Airport
From Trier to Frankfurt Airport is around 186 kilometres; because parts of the route are winding, allow about two hours and 15 minutes. From the Moselle city the way runs via Wittlich and Bernkastel-Kues, then via Bad Kreuznach towards the Rhine-Main area.
From there the motorway network carries on to the airport. We time the departure from Trier so that, despite the longer run out of the Eifel, you reach the terminal relaxed and on time.
Pickup in Trier
We collect you at a fixed price directly at your address in Trier, whether in the old town near the Porta Nigra, at the main station or out towards Trierweiler, Aach or Hockweiler. The driver arrives in good time so luggage can be loaded calmly.
The fixed price is set when you book and changes neither with the traffic situation nor with a very early departure.
Arriving at the terminal
At the airport the driver brings you right in front of Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, matched to your airline. From Trier, where the rail link involves several changes, that is a particularly clear time saving.
The direct drop-off in front of the departure terminal spares you every rush at an interchange station, especially on this longer route.
Trier and its surroundings
Trier is regarded as the oldest city in Germany, founded as the Roman Augusta Treverorum; the Porta Nigra, the Imperial Baths and the cathedral are UNESCO World Heritage. Trier is also the birthplace of Karl Marx, whose former home is now a museum.
Set on the Moselle, Trier is the gateway to the famous wine region and lies just a few kilometres from Luxembourg. Many of our passengers set off from the old town or from the wine villages of the Moselle valley.
Travel tips for this route
Because the way out of the Eifel and along the Moselle is at times slower than a pure motorway run, an earlier start from Trier is wise for early flights. Plan a generous buffer on top of the pure driving time.
With your flight number at booking, we match the pickup time in Trier precisely to your departure.

How long does the transfer from Trier to Frankfurt Airport take?
The drive from Trier to Frankfurt Airport takes about 137 minutes for 186 km in normal traffic. Your driver adds roughly 25 minutes of buffer for rush hour and roadworks.
How early should I leave Trier for Frankfurt Airport?
Leave Trier about 4 h 42 min before departure for a Schengen flight, or about 5 h 42 min for long-haul. That is 137 minutes of driving, 25 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 Trier to Frankfurt Airport?
The fixed price for the 186 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 Trier. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Trier.
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 Trier 15 minutes of waiting are included, and each further quarter hour is charged at the rate stated in the terms.
