Straight comparisons

Two at a time, with the size where the answer flips

On arrival at Frankfurt Hahn Airport

From the arrivals hall to each way in
Finding the stop

The coach to Frankfurt and Mainz leaves right outside the terminal, alongside the taxi stand. Buses toward Koblenz and other regional destinations leave instead from the bus station about 200 metres away.

Tickets

Book the coach online before you travel, or buy on board or at BOHR's ticket desk in front of the terminal, within sight of the stop — both only if seats remain unbooked.

The taxi rank

The taxi rank is directly in front of the terminal. Two firms work it, Airporttaxi-93 and Big & Small Taxitransfer, and no separate rank operator is listed, so approach either one directly.

Luggage

The fare includes one hand bag up to 35×20×20cm and 10kg, and one hold bag up to 55×85×40cm and 25kg. Extra or oversized luggage may cost more, so check before you travel if you’re carrying more.

Book online. The walk-up price is EUR 25.00 against a floor of EUR 18.99 — a third more for deciding at the stop.

A return ticket is exactly two singles. There is no saving in buying one, and no group, student or senior rate exists.

If your flight is late, your ticket still works but only if there is room: the operator says a missed departure stays valid for the next one "sofern dort freie Platze verfugbar sind" — subject to free seats. An unused ticket is not refunded.

Going back, check the day. The last coach from Frankfurt is 18:45 on Mondays and Thursdays, against 23:00 on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The 2h10 journey time is real — it holds on all 90 weekly departures — so plan the full two hours plus, not the "about ninety minutes" you may have read.

Check the day you travel. The last coach leaves between 23:15 and 23:55 daily, and six days a week another goes between 00:45 and 02:00 — but Wednesday has none after midnight, resuming at 05:30. Sunday has nothing between about 02:00 and 09:00; Monday nothing between 01:00 and 08:15.

Worth knowing

This airport is about two hours from Frankfurt — its own site does not state that distance anywhere. It publishes a 100 km catchment radius instead, and Frankfurt is outside it. Plan on two hours.

The two operators who do state a distance disagree by 12 km flibco says 115 km, FlixBus says 127 km. Both are companies selling seats, not authorities, so this page states neither as fact.

The airport now calls itself Flughafen Hahn or the Hunsrück Airport, not Frankfurt — check your ticket carefully, since it is about two hours from the actual city.

The coach takes exactly 2 hours 10 minutes, on every one of its 90 weekly departures.

Coming from Frankfurt, the last coach to the airport leaves at 18:45 on Mondays and Thursdays — earlier than any other day. Check this before booking a late-evening departure.

Buying at the stop costs 32% more. The coach is from EUR 18.99 booked online and EUR 25.00 bought on the spot. That is one of the few exact numbers on this page — the online price is a floor set by a booking engine, the walk-up price is fixed.

The last coach leaves between 23:15 and 23:55 daily, with another between 00:45 and 02:00 on six days a week. Then a gap: nothing on Sunday between about 02:00 and 09:00, or on Monday between 01:00 and 08:15.

No taxi fare can be stated for trips ending outside the district (Frankfurt is in another state): the driver must tell you the fare is freely negotiable before you set off, unless you agree to the meter.

Regional buses to Koblenz and the Mosel run on the regional tariff, but no fare is published. They are also daytime-only and slow.
