hello there dear travelers,

is there a direct connection between Frankfurt Sud and the airport? and how can i get from Sud to FRA the fastest besides taxi (how much it costs anyway)?

thank you very much for your help!

There are direct trains, taking about 10 minutes, and a direct bus (61), taking about 30 minutes. You can check at www.bahn.de. It will certainly be cheaper and faster than a taxi.

is the English bahn.de page link.

Getting a train is very easy, and finding your way around the massive FRA from the train station within it (more or less) is also easy.

DB timetable
http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en
From: Frankfurt Sued
To: FRA

There are direct buses. But no direct trains.
Single ticket local public transport is EUR 3,60 (covers buses, trams, U-Bahn, S-Bahn, regional trains).
Connections (from via Frankfurt Hbf) with ICE or IC/EC trains are not covered with this ticket.

Taxi?
~ EUR 20-25

No direct trains? What about ICE 1642,ICE 1548 or RE 4644, to name just three of them. They are all shown as direct trains on the bahn.de site. Is there some construction work, so they passengers have to change trains?

you are all great!
thank you for all suggestions.

cheers to you!

Correction: some direct trains
3 RE trains (6:40 8:42 and 16:19) EUR 3,60
7 ICE trains (7:40 09:38 11:38 13:38 15:38 17:38 23:02) EUR 7,00

If one fits from its departure times use it of course. 8-13 minutes travel time.
