How do you get to the airport without the stress of driving or negotiating a taxi fare?

You board a shared shuttle at Munich Central Station or Schwabing North and ride 30 minutes to the airport in an air-conditioned bus with a professional driver. Buses depart every 20 minutes between 5:15 a.m. and 7:55 p.m. Your ticket is valid on any departure, and if you book round-trip, the return leg stays active for a full year. No timing stress, no transport logistics to arrange.

The Experience

The Lufthansa Express Bus pulls up to the curb at Munich Central Station, its blue-and-yellow livery unmistakable against the morning light. You hand your voucher to the driver, find a seat in the air-conditioned cabin, and that's it — the airport transfer is underway. No negotiating with taxi drivers, no wrestling luggage onto a train platform, no second-guessing whether you'll make your flight. The shuttle leaves every 20 minutes from the station or from a stop in Schwabing North if that's closer to where you're staying, and the route to Munich Airport takes about 30 minutes depending on traffic.

What makes this shared transfer work is the simplicity of it. You book online, get a voucher instantly, and show up at the pickup point. The driver is professional and knows the route cold — no detours, no confusion about which terminal you need. The bus is full most mornings, but that's actually reassuring; it means the schedule is reliable and the service runs constantly. If you're traveling solo, with a partner, or as a small group, you all fit the same way. The ticket isn't locked to a specific departure time, so if your plans shift by an hour or two, you just catch the next bus. First service leaves at 5:15 a.m. for early flights, last one at 7:55 p.m., which covers most schedules.

If you're also flying into Munich and need a way back to the city, you can upgrade to a round-trip transfer when you book. The return ticket stays valid for up to a year, so you're not locked into using it on your exact return date — book it now, use it whenever you need it. Parents traveling with strollers or small children will find the shuttle accommodates them without fuss. The whole transaction is frictionless: confirmation email, voucher in hand, driver waiting at the designated stop.
