Frankfurt Airport (FRA) is Germany’s primary international hub and a major European transfer point, serving a mix of full-service carriers, long-haul operators, and some regional services; low-cost airlines also use secondary terminals at times. Located about 12–15 km west of the city center, the airport is well connected by high-speed regional and S-Bahn trains (15–20 minutes to central Frankfurt), long-distance ICE services (20–30 minutes) and frequent regional buses and taxis; expect public transport fares in the low single-digit euros to low double digits for taxi rides. Advantages include extensive lounge and shopping options, strong transfer infrastructure and many long-haul choices; downsides can be busy terminals, occasional queues and a spread-out complex that may require extra transfer time between terminals.
