Booking
Frankfurt is Lufthansa's home base and the most-connected German city from the United States. With 16 nonstop routes from US airports, getting to Frankfurt on Lufthansa is about as straightforward as transatlantic travel gets. Fares start competitive in winter months, and you can fly from coast to coast with daily nonstop options. Mundo Trip can help you lock in the best available pricing.
Cheapest Months to Travel
January, February, and November tend to offer the lowest fares from the US to Frankfurt. These fall outside peak European travel season, and you can find round-trip deals well under $700 from East Coast cities.
Peak Travel Seasons to Avoid
June through August is peak summer, and December gets expensive around the holidays. Spring break weeks in March and April also push prices up, particularly from family-heavy departure cities.
Best Time to Book
For the lowest fares, book about 6 to 10 weeks before your trip. If you're planning summer travel, start looking 3 to 4 months out. Lufthansa occasionally runs sales in January and September that can save you a couple hundred dollars.
Midweek Advantage
Tuesday and Wednesday departures tend to be cheaper than Friday or Sunday flights. The price gap can be $50 to $150 each way, depending on the season.
Time Difference to Keep in Mind
Frankfurt operates on Central European Time (CET), which is +6 hours ahead of New York (EST) and +9 hours ahead of Los Angeles (PST). Most US departures are evening flights arriving the next morning, so you lose a night of sleep but gain a full day in Europe.
