A. Travel by airplane
Please send your travel dates and flight numbers to our
Conference Secretary Ms. Anita Seidl

Participants of the conference who fly to
Germany will either arrive in
Frankfurt Airport (=FRA) or
Munich ("München") Airport (=MUC). Although
Munich is closer to Augsburg we recommend that you
fly into Frankfurt and take a train from there to
Augsburg. Indeed, there is a train station
("Frankfurt Flughafen Terminal") right inside
Frankfurt Airport with convenient connections to
Augsburg Central Station.
1. Arrival at Frankfurt Airport
Either you continue your journey by flying to
Munich Airport, or you take a train from the train
station at Munich Airport to Augsburg Central
Station. We recommend that you take the train, since
this is very comfortable and you do not have to
transfer from Munich Airport to Augsburg Central
Station.
You find the schedule of trains from Frankfurt
Airport ("Frankfurt Flughafen Terminal") to
Augsburg Central Station here:
2. Arrival at Munich Airport
2.1 Car service or airport shuttle from Munich Airport to Augsburg
Once we know when and with which flight you
plan to arrive at Munich Airport we will organize
an Airport Transfer to the Conference
Center in Augsburg by car/van, which will cost
a total of 65 EUR for 1-4 passengers.
A regular taxi from Munich Airport to
Augsburg is quite expensive (approximately
130 EUR one way, better ask the driver before
you start).
If you would like to call a car service
directly at the airport, for example,
Munictransfer
http://www.munictransfer.de/index_eng.html
phone: +49-(0)89-80 90 94 84
mobile: +49-(0)175-2 69 26 26
the price is also approximately 130 EUR (one way).
2.2 Trains from Munich Airport to Augsburg
You may also reach Augsburg by train. The train
ride consists of two parts: First by commuter
train ("S-Bahn") S8 to München-Pasing, and then to
Augsburg Central Station. So you have to change
trains in München-Pasing. You find the schedule of
trains from Munich Airport to Augsburg Central
Station here:
You may buy your ticket at the "Deutsche Bahn"
(DB) ticket counter in Terminal 1 of Munich
Airport, right next to the escalators down to the
platform where the S8 commuter train leaves to
München-Pasing; for a map of Terminal 1 see

B. Arrival at Augsburg Central Station
Take a taxi to the
Conference Center "Haus St. Ulrich"
Kappelberg 1
86150 Augsburg
http://www.haus-sankt-ulrich.de/
The taxi stand is in front of the train
station. The conference center is only about 1.5
km away from the station. The ride will cost
between 5-7 EUR.
