The taxi driver knows his way round and will "automatically" take you to the right terminal and put you down near your check-in desk.

You can park your motorbike here completely free of charge. It's easy to find: on the arrivals driveway for Terminal 1, at the end of Section C.
Parking spaces for the physically disadvantaged: to make things easier for you.
We have done our best to make things easier for passengers with restricted mobility: for example, you can park free of charge in front of the terminals for getting in or out of your vehicle, unloading and loading.

There are also special parking spaces in the parking building to the right of Terminal 1 in Section A opposite the departures level. Or in the underground parking facility of Terminal 2, where you can reach reserved spaces via entrance P8: go to level U4, row 17.
There is of course also handicapped-friendly access to the check-in halls.
Another way you can benefit: you can conveniently reserve a parking space from home online and save up to 53%. With the online rates for early bookers. Make your reservation early to save as much as possible!

Park & Rail
Travel without the stress of downtown parking and crowds.
It's much nicer to transfer from your car to an ICE train at the airport's long-distance railway station than it is to fight the crowds and traffic downtown: take advantage of over 15,000 public parking spaces open around the clock and short, roofed-over paths that take you quickly and conveniently to the station. Its central location very near the Frankfurt motorway interchange (Frankfurter Kreuz), plus frequent train services (174 long-distance trains stop here every day), saves you time and reduces stress. It takes only 57 minutes to get to downtown Cologne, 73 minutes to Stuttgart. It's a great way to go.
And if you're planning to take the train to your holiday destination, you can save up to 53% of the parking fees by taking advantage of our online rates for early bookers! (At the moment this service is available in german only)
Premium parking
More security and service for your car.
If you want to make absolutely sure that your car is safe while you're traveling, the Fraport partner "Airport Car Service" (ACS) offers guarded parking and various other services. It doesn't matter whether you're flying or taking the train. In any case, you can expect a service that is not only exclusive but also flexible and quick.
Corporate Parking
Perfect for companies and frequent flyers.
Corporate parking gives you greater convenience and reduces your parking costs. It can often happen that several of your employees need parking spaces several times a month. Our concept is designed to meet this need. It offers companies and frequent flyers the opportunity to rent fixed parking spaces on a long-term basis. Plus: more than one vehicle can be registered on each card. This lets you make the best possible use of each one, yielding significant savings. Whenever one of your people parks at the airport more than three days a month, you're saving compared to the regular rates. You pay only 184 euros plus VAT for each Corporate Parking Card. And you benefit in more ways, because you get to take advantage of convenient parking: direct access to Terminal 1, there's no need to search for a space, and you can go straight to the gate or train without getting wet and having to walk long distances. Nor do you have to wait to pay afterwards.
If you have questions on corporate parking or would like us to make you an individual offer, our parking office is open Mondays to Fridays from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.
We'll be glad to advise you — call us at +49 (0) 1805 690 609 0

Fraport Hands Over Site to Lufthansa for Building A380 Maintenance Base at FRA
31.10.2005
70/2005
FRA/rap> As per agreement, Fraport AG today handed over to Lufthansa the cleared development site at the southern side of Frankfurt Airport (FRA) where the airline will construct a new maintenance base for its future fleet of A380 superjumbo jets. Fraport's executive board vice chairman Prof. Manfred Schölch said, "We have completed all of the necessary prerequisites for construction of this maintenance base to begin in November." Schölch added that, in addition to the new hangar, the maintenance base will include a warehouse, a ramp area with aircraft parking stands, a taxiway, and a rainwater retention basin.
At the beginning of September, the German Federal Administrative High Court (BVG) in Leipzig confirmed the Hesse Administrative High Court's (HVG) decision of June 28 regarding zoning approval for the planned A380 maintenance base at FRA. As a result, Fraport AG began site clearing (cutting trees, etc.) on September 12.
Fraport AG's land utilization agreement with Lufthansa for the site at the southern side of the airport, which is now ready for construction, runs for a period of 65 years. Lufthansa is investing about €150 million for the new A380 maintenance base – the largest industrial hall in Germany – at its Frankfurt home airport.
Fraport's main customer Lufthansa has ordered a total of 15 Airbus superjumbos as future "flagships" of the Lufthansa fleet. The first four A380s, each having a capacity of 555 passengers, are expected to go into scheduled service with Lufthansa at the start of the Summer Timetable 2008.
