Cheap Flights to Frankfurt from Houston

This fare display is useful for identifying general travel periods when cheap flights to Frankfurt (from Houston) might be available, and to provide you with insight on how airlines structure their fares based on travel seasons. We suggest you avoid searching for cheap flights with departures close to major holidays, such as Easter, Christmas, etc. Even though airlines might publish low fares for travel around holidays, such fares are very rarely available for purchase, because airlines try to sell significantly more expensive fares first before releasing the remaining cheap seats, if any, at the very last minute

Please use the Flights Search Form on the left to search for cheap flights to Frankfurt (from Houston) that are available for your specific travel dates. Use the Flex Days option to increase the likelihood of finding the cheapest deals for Frankfurt flights.

TRAIN:

Way to/from the terminal

Frankfurt Airport has two railway stations

The long-distance railway station is at the AIRail Terminal, right next to Terminal 1. Trains arrive at and depart from platforms 4 to 7.

In addition, there is a local railway station for S-Bahn, regional and local trains at Terminal 1, Level 1. Trains arrive at and depart from platforms 1 to 3.

Both railway stations are linked to Terminal 2 via buses and the Sky Line. This is how you get there

From the platform (Level 0, Area B) go one floor higher up, following signs to Terminal 2. When in Area B or C, get on a free Shuttle Bus to Terminal 2. The service runs between 05:00 and 03:00 hrs (5am to 3am). Alternatively, follow signs to the Sky Line in Hall B. This service to Terminal 2 runs at 2-minute intervals.

Important: You are not permitted to take trolleys onto a Sky Line train.

Seamless Transfer between the train and the plane

The service allows you to check-in for your Lufthansa flight directly at the central train stations of Cologne or Stuttgart. The Lufthansa check-in desks are signposted and easy to find.

Baggage may also be checked in the night before your flight. Check-in deadline is 20 minutes before departure of your ICE train to Frankfurt Airport.

It goes without saying that this service operates in either direction. Upon your return, you do not have to reclaim your baggage before you have reached Cologne or Stuttgart, respectively. That is also where customs control will take place.

With 16 daily ICE-train connections from Cologne and 7 daily connections from Stuttgart, there is a well-timed feeder service for practically every international Lufthansa flight from Frankfurt Airport.
