Frankfurt Hahn Airport (HHN) Information

(Frankfurt am Main, Hesse, Germany)



Frankfurt Hahn is the smaller of the city's two airports and a popular alternative to the larger Frankfurt International Airport. Although it is served by several low-cost carriers, it is a fair distance from the city, meaning that transfers by taxi can negate savings made on flights.

It does, however, lie within easy reach of Luxembourg and is a good point of arrival if you are visiting the Mosel wine region. The modern Frankfurt Hahn Airport has two terminals which serve in the region of four million passengers annually. Of note, the site remains open 24 hours a day.

The Frankfurt Hahn Airport was used by the United States Air Force during the Cold War. Today, it is served by just under ten commercial airlines, including Ryanair, Wizz Air and Iceland Express.
