Cheap Flights from Frankfurt to Addis Ababa Starting at $331

Frankfurt Airport (FRA) is Germany’s primary international hub and a major transfer point for long-haul and European flights, while Frankfurt-Hahn (HHN), located farther away, typically serves low-cost carriers and charter services. FRA is dominated by full-service airlines and Star Alliance connections, often perceived as mid-to-premium in fare level; HHN can be a budget-friendly alternative for price-sensitive travelers. FRA sits about 12 km northwest of the city center, reachable by regional train or S-Bahn in roughly 15–20 minutes (fares commonly in the low single digits in euros) or by taxi in 20–30 minutes. HHN is around 120 km west, with shuttle buses taking 70–90 minutes at modest coach fares. Pros: FRA offers extensive amenities, lounges and fast transfer options; cons: it can be busy and involve long walks. HHN’s plus is lower fares for some routes; minus is greater distance and fewer services.

Fly direct from Frankfurt to Addis Ababa for the fastest, most convenient way to connect Germany with Ethiopia’s vibrant capital — less transit hassle, more time to relax or get straight to business. While connections can sometimes be cheaper, a nonstop flight saves hours and offers a smoother, more comfortable journey to explore Addis Ababa and beyond.

Addis Ababa’s main gateway is Bole International Airport (ADD), the country’s primary international hub and the base for Ethiopian Airlines, so it typically handles most long-haul and regional services. The airport sits about 6–8 km southeast of the city center; taxis and ride-hailing usually take 15–30 minutes depending on traffic and can be economical, while airport shuttles and hotel transfers are commonly available. Expect a mix of full-service carriers and some budget regional operators, with fares that can be competitive on African connections. Pros: modern terminal facilities and frequent international connections. Cons: security checks and peak-hour congestion can make transfers less predictable.
