Black Forest to FRA: Your airport transfer between Freiburg and Frankfurt Airport
A Freiburg to Frankfurt Airport transfer with FlyingStar starts in your own street – in the old town between the Münster and the Bächle, in the green Vauban quarter or out in Zähringen. Your driver heads for the A5 and travels north up the Rhine valley past Offenburg, Karlsruhe and Heidelberg to the airport. From the main station our calculator puts it at around 263 km and 166 minutes to Terminal 1.
Flying home, you are met at the agreed point at Frankfurt Airport and driven back to the Dreisam. Freiburg, with some 238,000 residents the fourth-largest city in Baden-Württemberg and home to a university founded in 1457, welcomes over three million visitors a year – many of whom arrive via Frankfurt.

Why us: Why book your Freiburg to Frankfurt Airport transfer with FlyingStar
Germany’s southernmost big city, Germany’s biggest airport – and 263 km of A5 in between. This is what our ride adds.
Every continent from FRA
Frankfurt is Lufthansa’s main hub, with direct long-haul flights you will not find everywhere. We drive you there from your Freiburg front door.
The west side is cheapest
St. Georgen, Rieselfeld and Zähringen lie closest to the A5 – about €15 less than Littenweiler at the foot of the Black Forest.
Four or seven, one price
The fare is per car: around €101 each for four people, about €70 each for a group of seven in the minibus.
No meter on a long drive
Over 263 km a fixed figure matters. Once confirmed, it does not move – not for traffic near Karlsruhe, not for a 1 a.m. start.
Late landing included
We follow your flight number. If you land late at FRA, the driver is still there – without an extra charge.
Booked both ways
Reserve the drive back to the Dreisam together with the outward trip; each leg has its own fare.
University and clinic guests
Visiting scientists, doctors and speakers can be billed directly to the inviting institute.
Taxi or airport transfer?
A taxi meter over 263 km makes the total a surprise. Our price is known before you book, and the car is reserved only for you.
Free cancellation
Trip postponed? There is no fee as long as you cancel over four hours before we arrive. Card, PayPal or cash – all fine.

Freiburg to Frankfurt Airport: Around 2 hours 45 up the Rhine valley
Freiburg has two A5 junctions, Mitte and Nord. From there the route is simple: the A5 northbound through the Upper Rhine plain, past Offenburg, Karlsruhe, Heidelberg and Darmstadt, right to the Frankfurt Airport exit. From the main station that is about 263 km and 166 minutes.
Those times assume an open road. The A5 near Karlsruhe and the last kilometres before Frankfurt are busy at rush hour, so plan generously – the fare stays as confirmed.
Long train ride, taxi meter or private car to FRA?
By rail from Freiburg to Frankfurt Airport you often change at least once with all your luggage, and early-morning departures may come before the first connection arrives. An airport taxi would meter all 263 km. A fixed price airport transfer to Frankfurt tells you the total beforehand and takes you there in one go.
St. Georgen in the south-west is the shortest start at about 260 km; Littenweiler in the east the longest at about 270 km.
