Facing a long layover at Frankfurt Airport and wondering whether you have time to leave the terminal and explore the city? If luggage is holding you back, the airport offers convenient on-site baggage storage that makes short trips into town easy and stress-free.
Storage facilities are available in both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, with additional locations planned. These secure baggage services let you check in items for a few hours or for several days, giving you the freedom to sightsee, grab a meal, or attend a meeting without carrying bags.
Operated as part of Frankfurt Airport’s “Great to Have You Here!” service program, the baggage storage handles thousands of items every month. The service is designed for temporary storage and follows airport security and handling procedures to keep belongings safe while you’re away from the terminal.
Pricing is straightforward and varies by item size and duration. For example, storing a winter coat for 24 hours can cost under €1. A standard-sized bag (approximately 80 cm x 50 cm x 30 cm) typically costs around €4.50 for up to two hours, and roughly €9 for storage up to 24 hours. Exact rates depend on location and any updates to airport pricing, so check the on-site desk for current charges.
Using baggage storage is simple: locate the service desk in your terminal, drop off your items, receive a claim ticket, and return within the agreed timeframe. For extended stays, the service can accommodate longer periods, though charges will apply accordingly. This option is a practical solution for travelers with overnight layovers, short city visits, or those who want to avoid the hassle of dragging luggage through public transport.
Whether you’re passing through on a brief connection or have several hours to spare, Frankfurt Airport’s baggage storage provides a secure, affordable way to lighten your load and make the most of your time outside the terminal.
