Plane or train?
 
From Frankfurt to Paris one way? I think I want to take the train from Paris to Nice but is it possible to get a cheap one way from Frankfurt to Paris? and can anyone please advise as to what airlines I should contact? Does anyone know how long by plane from Frankfurt to Paris? I know the train is approx. 8 hours.

Hi<BR><BR>Frankfurt - Paris by air is just under an hour.<BR><BR>No problem with Air france or Lufthansa, but I don't know any cheap airlines for this route.<BR><BR>Peter<BR>

If you've got a day to give up from some other destination, consider www.Ryanair.com - - from Frankfurt to Glasgow (10:00 am dep, 10:55 am arr) for only 25 GBP - - then ideally, stay overnight in Scotland and fly to Paris (Beauvais) the next day for only 25 GBP also - - two daily departures at 7:00 am(arrives 09:30 am) and at 15:45 (arrives at 18:15).<BR><BR>You can also fly from Paris to Nice on Air Liberte for half the price and in half the time of the train.<BR><BR>Best wishes,<BR><BR>Rex<BR>
