I think they must have deleted the stop at the gas station outside of Ramstein front gate, but not eliminated the bus. It was always pretty full. I have taken it several times to get from Ramstein to Hahn and fly to Bratislava.   Bill Docekal Intermediate Member Username: Bill_d1 Post Number: 124 Registered: 06-2003 Posted From: 76.186.199.157 Posted on Friday, May 14, 2010 - 02:31 pm:    ----- Original Message ----- From: info@taxi-roadrunner.de To: 'Bill Docekal' Sent: Friday, May 14, 2010 10:13 AM Subject: AW: Ramstein to Frankfurt Hahn Hello Mr Docekal Our price for 2 people to Frankfurt is 80.-- € in total.

Saw a couple of taxis standing there . They had the following advertisement on them: " Road-Runner Taxi, Ramstein AB, Frankfurt-Hahn, tel: 06371-976140, email: info@taxi-roadrunner.de". Don't know their rates. But I guess whoever needs their service can email them. There was also taxis with "Alex taxi service" there. Didn't get their number.   John Slater New member Username: Jennyknob Post Number: 2 Registered: 02-2010 Posted From: 74.97.205.18 Posted on Tuesday, May 04, 2010 - 05:09 pm:    The Bohr bus company changed the location of its bus stop at Frankfurt International, effective March 28, 2010. The new bus stop is at Terminal 2, opposite exit E 9. Here's the link to the new information: http://omnibusse.bohr.de/routes/wtc/routes.php?action=detail&route_id=2&language =en   Patrick O'Halloran Member Username: Usnusmc_doc Post Number: 14 Registered: 01-2004 Posted From: 76.101.96.63 Posted on Tuesday, March 23, 2010 - 07:51 pm:    Thanks Mike, your info sure does help, appreciate that.

Refers to where to get the bus from Frankfurt-Main airport to Frankfurt-Hahn airport: Place of departure Frankfurt Airport: Bus-Station, Terminal 1, arrival area in front of hall B - bus-stop number 22. You will find this info and bus schedules to/from the two airports at this website: http://omnibusse.bohr.de/routes/wtc/routes.php?action=detail&route_id=16&languag e=en Good luck   Barbara Patterson Member Username: Bap Post Number: 40 Registered: 03-2008 Posted From: 70.178.250.156 Posted on Tuesday, March 23, 2010 - 03:49 pm:    Thanks, John Right after I posted I found the answer in an earlier discussion. Our flight comes in after the free shuttle but the paid shuttle might work. I also got a quote from "alex shuttle services" for 100 euros one-way, Hahn-Ramstein (don't know if he can go on base) and he meets you at baggage. I don't think you can get a rental car for 1 day with a drop-off for that cheap. Of course, if you didn't get a hop and found yourself hanging around a little longer, at least you would still have your rental!   John D.

If so, when and where do you get on and when and where does it arrive at Ramstein?   Patrick O'Halloran Member Username: Usnusmc_doc Post Number: 13 Registered: 01-2004 Posted From: 76.101.96.63 Posted on Tuesday, March 23, 2010 - 01:37 pm:    If I take the Ramstein to Frankfurt daily shuttle, where do I get the local bus to Hahn? What is bus # and how often does it make the Frankfurt-Hahn trip? Appreciate any info.   Marita Marcano Member Username: Joluma Post Number: 14 Registered: 03-2010 Posted From: 74.170.108.155 Posted on Monday, March 22, 2010 - 09:14 pm:    I found this option but it is very expensive: http://www.airport-shuttle-ramstein.com/preise_hahn.html And I checked europcar. The cheapest car is around $76 for 1 day. That is definitely cheaper than the shuttle service above provided a small car is available.   PR Senior Member Username: Pretzlaff Post Number: 1566 Registered: 06-2003 Posted From: 67.190.52.82 Posted on Sunday, March 07, 2010 - 11:19 pm:    Alot of folks go to Hahn to get back to England. An option is the Euroline bus. It is not cheap, not fast, but it gets you to England in about 12 hours. Beats waiting 3 days for a cheap RyanAir ticket, then spending 4-5 hours getting to Hahn thru Frankfurt. It also goes thru Cologne and Aachen which might be better options because they are in the correct direction to start with. The below is for Frankfurt. I could have sworn that I saw a schedule that takes you from Kaiserslautern. http://www.touring.de/index.php?id=985&SP=EN&sAbfOrt=LONDON&sZielOrt=FRANKFURT%2 0MAIN%20HBF&datum=11.03.2010&rueckdatum=08.03.2010&P=1&OP=nein&S=ja&Z=Kreditkart e&OT=Ja&L=1   John D.

You can use this DBahn link to plan a trip from Hahn Airport to Landstuhl - just plug in your date and time. Reverse the locations for the return route.   John R Garrison Senior Member Username: Majorg Post Number: 2376 Registered: 02-2006 Posted From: 208.81.157.86 Posted on Thursday, February 25, 2010 - 04:59 pm:    Edward: As Leland just pointed out, the whole purpose of this thread was to notify us that the transportation you identified (Ssherer-Reisen) is being discontinued as of 1 Mar 10.

I did this last year to get to the UK via Ryanair. The cost of the van is 11 Euro.

Not sure how much it costs (? about 12 Euros one way).   William Yates Advanced Member Username: Byates Post Number: 162 Registered: 11-2006 Posted From: 68.159.109.76 Posted on Monday, February 22, 2010 - 05:07 pm:    My wife used this group last year.

I had made this trip once before. I have no personal knowledge of the Ramstein area, but I’m hoping to find some sort of link to the airport via local bus and rail. Perhaps someone who has been stationed at Ramstein could provide guidence.   william brown Senior Member Username: Brown9bill Post Number: 565 Registered: 12-2006 Posted From: 108.0.100.243 Posted on Monday, February 22, 2010 - 04:20 pm:    There is a "You pay for it shuttle" from Spangdalham to Ramstein which must be booked in advance. The cost was $75.00 for two. A group of individuals rented a van with driver and the cost was 40 Euros per person. The van was there in an hour and took us directly to Ramstein. Those going to Frankfurt-Hahn airport now will have to pay a much higher price. Happy Travels.   D.B.M UK Senior Member Username: Overlandrover Post Number: 5686 Registered: 04-2005 Posted From: 88.105.94.105 Posted on Monday, February 22, 2010 - 04:04 pm:    I know from Spangdalham there is/was a "You pay for it Shuttle" that had to be booked in advance that would take you to Hahn. At the time we were there, they were booked, so I didn't get a price. Maybe somebody might start up a "You pay for it Shuttle" going from Ramstein to Hahn. I know I don't want to pay for a taxi to get to Hahn, the car hire might be the only option. Getting to Frankfurt Main from Hahn, then getting to Ramstein might work. Anyone out there know the route, or where to check?   Lester Green Advanced Member Username: Rtgreen5 Post Number: 259 Registered: 03-2007 Posted From: 69.143.222.224 Posted on Monday, February 22, 2010 - 03:39 pm:    Don: Except for a rental car which probably has a drop-off fee, what alternative public transportation is there to Hahn from the Ramstein area?
