• Your destination will be Frankfurt Airport (FRA), please check the official website for more information. Pick up your luggage and pass through the security.
• Make your way towards “Frankfurt Flughafen Fernbahnhof” (Frankfurt Airport long-distance station).
• Shortly before you enter the station, which is made out of glass, you pass the so called “AIRail Terminal” on your left side. Go there and get yourself a ticket for the train to “Heidelberg Hbf“.

• Go into the station, orientate yourself, choose the right track and use the escalator to get to the trains.
• If you took the direct connection sit back and relax. It will take around 45 minutes to Heidelberg main station.
• If you took the connection via “Mannheim”, exit the train after ~30 minutes at “Mannheim Hbf” (Mannheim main station) and change tracks/trains according to your ticket. It will take another 15 minutes to reach Heidelberg main station.
• Congratulations: You arrived at “Heidelberg Hbf”. Find the way to your hotel or the conference. The conference venue is close to the train station.
