Airport transportation
 
Has anyone used Suntransfers for transportation to/from airports in Germany? I am looking for recommendations for reputable transportation from Frankfurt to Mainz and Munich City Center to Munich airport.

The S-Bahn is reliable from the center of Munich to the airport.

Any taxi will take you where you want to go. Why pay extra for a pick-up service. A taxi to Mainz from the Frankfurt airport will cost you about 50-55 euro, depending on traffic, time of day.

The S-bahn will cost you 4.35 €.

I would not bother with special transfers between Frankfurt Airport and Mainz. Mainz is very close; the S-Bahn S8 will take you to Mainz Hauptbahnhof (main railway station). From there you can easily take a taxi to your hotel. The journey by rail lasts 26 minutes.

www.rmv.de/en/ will give you routes and timetables so you can plan ahead.

Oh; if you are worried about the language barrier, there are signs at the regional railway station at the airport designating the S-Bahn (a big green circle with a white 'S' symbol). That will put you on the right track (literally ;)).
