By train to the plane: now even easier. Bookings with Lufthansa Express Rail now include the Deutsche Bahn (DB) City-Ticket. This allows customers to also use local public transportation during their trip. Lufthansa boarding passes are also valid for travel by bus, tram, underground and suburban railway to and from the Express Rail station.
All Lufthansa Express Rail destinations except Siegburg and Basel will receive the convenient upgrade. In a total of 26 German cities, customers can use local public transportation before and after their trip. The City-Ticket is valid on the day of validity once in each direction for the trip to the Express Rail station or from there to the destination of the trip.
Demand for Lufthansa Express Rail has risen continuously in recent years. In 2024 alone, around 500,000 passengers used the service for their arrival and departure at Frankfurt Airport. With the integration of the City-Ticket, Lufthansa and DB are further enhancing their intermodal offering.
