More suggestions for finding cheap flights to Frankfurt International

Whilst you should have no problem finding flights from London to Frankfurt, the availability of flights to Frankfurt from other parts of the UK is nothing like as substantial as it is to its main rival hubs in Paris and Amsterdam. This is largely due to the fact that Frankfurt and does not have anything like the same level of appeal as a tourist destination.

Although Frankfurt remains extremely important for connecting flights, the airport growth has been constrained by similar local environmental concerns to those which have hemmed in Heathrow from further development, therefore keeping airport charges high, and discouraging the development of budget flights into Frankfurt's main international airport. On the other hand, Frankfurt is still an extremely important hub for Lufthansa, offering more international destinations than any other airport in the world.

By contrast, Frankfurt International is a mere eight miles from downtown Frankfurt.

Mini Guide to Frankfurt International

Situated on the Main River , 50 miles south-east of the industrial Ruhr region, Frankfurt is one of Europe's leading financial centres and the transport hub of Germany .

Home to the German stock exchange and hundreds of banks, Frankfurt is one of the few cities in Europe to have built upwards rather than outwards.

The ‘Mainhattan' nickname is probably a little over the top – Frankfurt is certainly no New York – but the city does boast Europe 's tallest skyscraper.

Unfortunately Frankfurt has the image of being nothing more than a banking centre, or somewhere to change train or plane, but scratch beneath the gleaming surface and there is plenty on offer for visitors.

Desperate to shake off its yuppie reputation, huge amounts of money have been pumped into the city's arts and culture scene over the past 20 years. As a result Frankfurt is chock full of outstanding museums and galleries.

The Main River cuts east-west through the city. The financial district, central station and old town are all north of the river. South of the river is the quaint Sachsenhausen district, where many of the best clubs and pubs are located.

Finding a good-value place to stay in Frankfurt can be difficult because most hotels are geared towards the business market. Book in advance if possible or expect to pay a premium, especially if a big convention is in town. Don't be tempted by the cheap hotels around the main station – many of them double-up as brothels.
