Frankfurt Airport to Wiesbaden: route, journey time and terminals
Via the A 3 and the A 66
From Terminal 1 the fastest route to Wiesbaden runs via the A 3 and the A 66: approx. 31 km to the central station, about 24 minutes without traffic. In the other direction it is approx. 27 km and about 22 minutes, and approx. 33 km and about 26 minutes from the central station to Terminal 3 in the south of the airport. Roadworks and rush hour quickly add time, so for early departures we set the pick-up time generously.
Terminal 1 or Terminal 3
Frankfurt Airport currently handles passengers in Terminal 1 and the new Terminal 3. Check before the ride which terminal your airline uses: your chauffeur drives you straight to the right departures hall, so there is no need to change to the SkyLine train between the terminals.
After landing in Frankfurt: how to find your chauffeur
In Terminal 1 you arrive on Level 1; in Terminal 3 the arrivals hall is on the ground floor. That is where your chauffeur stands, holding a sign with your name on it. Using the flight number from your booking we track the flight, and the 45 minutes of waiting time only start at the actual landing – enough time for passport control and baggage reclaim.
Meeting guests and delegations
If you are collecting clients, speakers or a delegation, book the ride in your guest’s name. The chauffeur meets them in the arrivals hall and takes them without detours to Wiesbaden, to their hotel or straight to the meeting. Companies with regular rides pay by invoice.
State capital, federal authorities and congresses: meetings in Wiesbaden
Government district and city centre
Wiesbaden is home to the Hessian State Parliament, the State Chancellery and the state ministries. From the State Parliament on Schlossplatz it is approx. 28 km to Frankfurt Airport, about 23 minutes without traffic; from the city centre on Wilhelmstraße approx. 27 km and about 22 minutes. The Federal Statistical Office is also based here: approx. 26 km and about 20 minutes from Gustav-Stresemann-Ring to Terminal 1.
RheinMain CongressCenter and Kurhaus
Larger congresses and conferences take place at the RheinMain CongressCenter on Friedrich-Ebert-Allee. According to the City of Wiesbaden it offers 45 halls, rooms and studios and space for up to 12,500 visitors throughout the building. From the RMCC it is approx. 27 km to the airport (about 22 minutes), from the Kurhaus approx. 28 km (about 24 minutes).
Teams and congress guests
When speakers, delegates or a whole team arrive via Frankfurt, we plan the pick-ups by flight number. The Business Van seats 6 passengers with 6 pieces of luggage; for groups of up to 17 people, ask for the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, and we agree several vehicles with you by quote.
Pick-ups in Biebrich, Kastel, Nordenstadt and the surrounding area
Outside the city centre, too, we collect you at your address. To Frankfurt Airport it is approx. 28 km from Biebrich Palace on the Rhine (about 22 minutes without traffic), approx. 30 km from Schierstein (about 23 minutes), approx. 24 km from Erbenheim (about 18 minutes) and approx. 20 km from Nordenstadt (about 16 minutes). Amöneburg, Kastel and Kostheim on the right bank of the Rhine also belong to Wiesbaden; from Mainz-Kastel it is approx. 27 km (about 23 minutes). From Taunusstein it is approx. 38 km (about 35 minutes), from Eltville in the Rheingau approx. 38 km (about 28 minutes).
Alternatives: S-Bahn, Frankfurt-Hahn and Cologne Bonn
By S-Bahn and regional train
According to Frankfurt Airport, the regional station on the lower level of Terminal 1 links the airport directly with Wiesbaden; S-Bahn lines S8 (via Mainz central station) and S9 (via Mainz-Kastel) and regional trains stop there. If you fly from Terminal 3, you continue from the station on the SkyLine train. A transfer, by contrast, starts at your door and ends at the terminal – even with plenty of luggage or for the first flight of the morning. Unlike a shared shuttle, it carries only you and your guests, with no stops on the way.
Frankfurt-Hahn Airport
Frankfurt-Hahn Airport lies in the Hunsrück, approx. 91 km from Wiesbaden central station, about 65 minutes without traffic. You can book this route at a fixed price in the price calculator too; we agree the meeting point for pick-ups there with you.
Cologne Bonn Airport
For flights from Cologne Bonn we drive you there as well: approx. 153 km, about 1 hour 40 minutes without traffic via the A 3.
