Arrive in Zittau — the Upper Lusatian university town where Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic meet — with a private fixed-price transfer from Frankfurt Airport (FRA). The 592 km route along the A5, A7, A4 takes around 6h 05min, and your FrankfurtRide chauffeur handles everything door-to-door, with the price agreed before you travel.

Zittau sits in the far south-east of Saxony, beside the Neisse where Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic meet: a town of about 25,000 people with the Zittau Mountains rising just to the south. The town is the main seat of the Hochschule Zittau/Görlitz, a university of applied sciences shared with Görlitz 35 km to the north, and home to TU Dresden's International Institute Zittau (IHI) for postgraduate study and research. Zittau calls itself the town of the Lenten veils: the Great Zittau Lenten Veil of 1472, measuring 8.2 by 6.8 metres and painted with 90 biblical scenes, hangs in the museum church of the Holy Cross, while the market square is dominated by a town hall built in the 1840s to a design by Karl Friedrich Schinkel. A narrow-gauge steam railway climbs from Zittau into the mountains to the resorts of Oybin and Jonsdorf, and Liberec is around half an hour away across the Czech border.

The Frankfurt Airport to Zittau transfer follows the A5, A7, A4 corridor with consistent journey times of around 6h 05min. Your FrankfurtRide chauffeur drops you at any address in Zittau — hotel, business, or private residence — all at the same fixed price with no detour surcharge.

Practical Travel Tips for Zittau

Book your transfer at least 24 hours in advance, especially in summer peak season (June–September)
Share your flight number so your driver automatically tracks any delays — no extra charge
Terminal 1 (Hall B/C) and the new Terminal 3 at FRA are both covered — mention yours at booking
Zittau city centres often have limited parking — a door-to-door transfer avoids this entirely

Best Time to Visit Zittau

Most students reach Zittau at two points in the year: when the Hochschule's winter semester gets under way from late September into October, and when the summer semester starts in March and April. Summer and early autumn are hiking season in the Zittau Mountains, with the steam trains to Oybin and Jonsdorf at their busiest, while cross-border business with Poland and the Czech Republic keeps the calendar ticking over. At 592 km and ~6h 05min, the transfer from Frankfurt Airport is a full day on the road with a comfort stop built in: the A5 and A7 to the A4, the A4 all the way past Erfurt, Dresden and Bautzen, then the B178 south through Upper Lusatia.
