Athens International Airport (ATH) is Greece’s primary international gateway and a full-service hub commonly used by legacy carriers as well as many low-cost airlines. Located about 20 km east of central Athens, it typically takes 30–45 minutes to reach the city by express train or suburban rail, or 40–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; fares for public transit are usually modest while taxis can be mid-range to higher for late-night rides. The airport offers a wide range of shops, lounges and onward connections, making it convenient for international transfers; however, peak-season crowds and occasional traffic delays can affect transit times and comfort. For domestic-only or budget-oriented travel, some travelers may prefer alternatives depending on routing.
Frankfurt Airport (FRA) is Germany’s primary international hub and the country’s busiest gateway, typically handling long-haul, European and connecting traffic with a full mix of legacy and global carriers alongside some low-cost services. It sits about 12–14 km west of the city centre, with fast S-Bahn and regional trains taking roughly 10–15 minutes to central Frankfurt and fares generally in the low single-digit euros; taxis and rideshares are an option and usually take 20–30 minutes depending on traffic. The airport is well appointed for transfers and premium passengers but can feel large and busy during peak periods; for budget or charter travelers, Frankfurt–Hahn (HHN) is sometimes marketed as an economical alternative though it’s much farther from the city and involves longer ground transfers.
