Chauffeur and ride service

Flat-rate Sixt Ride transfers from MUC start around €60 into town

Sixt Ride at Munich Airport runs as a pre-booked chauffeur and ride service, useful if your company already uses Sixt or you want a fixed price from Terminal 1 or Terminal 2 into the city. You pick exact pickup time and car class in the Sixt app or on the website, then meet your driver at the arrivals area after clearing baggage claim. Prices for standard sedans into central Munich usually land between about €60 and €90, with higher tiers for business and premium vehicles.

Both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 arrivals halls are covered, so you can book Sixt Ride whether you land on Lufthansa in T2 or on other airlines in T1. Pickup points are typically right outside the arrivals doors near the regular taxi ranks, so you don’t need to take a shuttle or train into Munich Airport Center just to find your driver. Add your flight number to the booking and drivers track the actual landing time, which helps if you’re on evening flights that often run 20–30 minutes late.

Service hours at MUC run 24/7 as long as you book in advance, and you can usually secure a car with a lead time of 3–24 hours depending on time of day. Payment runs through your Sixt account, which helps if you already have a corporate profile or linked credit card from a past rental. You get an instant email confirmation with pickup date, terminal (1 or 2), and the booked fare down to the cent.

Car classes range from standard sedans to business vans that can seat up to 5–7 passengers with luggage, useful if you’re splitting costs with colleagues from the same flight. Child seats, extra luggage, or special requests need to be added during booking, and they can add a few euros per item. The fixed price is based on distance into areas like Altstadt-Lehel or Schwabing, so heavy traffic on the A92 or A9 around rush hour won’t change the fare after confirmation.

There’s no big set of complaints flagged yet, but the usual risk with any pre-book is late exits from immigration or baggage taking over 45–60 minutes. Build in a buffer of at least 30 minutes beyond scheduled arrival for non-EU passport holders during peak hours (morning banks from 7:00 to 10:00 and evenings after 18:00). Final tip: screenshot your driver’s name and meeting point from the app before you leave the terminal Wi‑Fi so you’re not hunting for details at the curb.
