Arrival: Frankfurt Airport (FRA) and getting into Frankfurt

Arrival is at Frankfurt Airport (FRA), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Frankfurt is Germany's financial capital on the Main river, and its airport (FRA) is one of Europe's largest hubs, only about 12 km south-west of the city centre with its own motorway junction and long-distance rail station; the skyline of the Bankenviertel, the rebuilt Römerberg old town and the Sachsenhausen cider taverns are all a short drive away. We provide airport transfers in Frankfurt with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.

Arriving late at night? We note it and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the flight; a delay costs you nothing.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Heraklion to Frankfurt flight

Before you compare the Heraklion to Frankfurt flight prices, compare what they carry. A fare with hand luggage only can look cheapest and end up dearer once a bag is added. Haqqi Tours can provide the fare that matches your bags: cabin bag only for a short trip, checked bag for a holiday, extra allowance for a long stay. Seat selection, meals and priority boarding are optional extras on many airlines; we tell you which are worth it.

• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
• Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request

Flying with children, families and groups from Heraklion to Frankfurt

Families fly the Heraklion to Frankfurt route with us week in, week out. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the airline offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the carrier for a group fare where the numbers justify it.

Things to do in Frankfurt when you land

the Palmengarten, Goethe House, the Städel Museum, the Eiserner Steg bridge and a Rhine valley day to Rüdesheim are what most travellers come to Frankfurt for. Frankfurt is Germany's financial capital on the Main river, and its airport (FRA) is one of Europe's largest hubs, only about 12 km south-west of the city centre with its own motorway junction and long-distance rail station; the skyline of the Bankenviertel, the rebuilt Römerberg old town and the Sachsenhausen cider taverns are all a short drive away. Eat Frankfurter green sauce (Grüne Soße), Apfelwein in Sachsenhausen and Handkäse mit Musik while you are there.

Haqqi Tours provides guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Frankfurt; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.

Best time to fly from Heraklion to Frankfurt

The trade fairs (Messe) fill hotels through the year - the Book Fair in October and the IAA among them - and the A5 and A3 around the airport are slowest at weekday rush hours; winters are cold and summers warm. For the fare itself, the cheapest flights from Heraklion to Frankfurt are found outside school holidays and major events, on mid-week days, booked early. Peak weeks sell out first and cost most; shoulder months give the best mix of weather, availability and price.

Return flight from Frankfurt to Heraklion

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Frankfurt to Heraklion booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.

How much is a flight from Heraklion to Frankfurt?

Flight prices from Heraklion to Frankfurt follow demand: book early on a quiet day and you pay a fraction of a last-minute fare in high season. The airline you choose, whether the fare includes baggage, the seat class and the time of the flight all change the total. Rather than quote a number that will be wrong tomorrow, Haqqi Tours checks the fare for the day you want to fly and sends it to you through WhatsApp before you decide.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Heraklion to Frankfurt flight is frequently not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Heraklion to Frankfurt: how to pay less

The cheapest flight from Heraklion to Frankfurt is typically booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our team applies on every booking:

• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we look up
• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are usually cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares

Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Heraklion to Frankfurt that day and what a slightly different day would cost.

Departure: Heraklion Nikos Kazantzakis Airport (HER)

Your journey starts at Heraklion Nikos Kazantzakis Airport (HER). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. The airport bus and the city buses reach the centre in about 20 minutes and suit a central hotel; a private car is simpler for the north-coast resorts, for Elounda and Agios Nikolaos, or for crossing the island to Rethymno and Chania, where buses are slower and change at the station.

• Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
• Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
• Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
• Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
