Best Route to STR

FT Friends,

I am trying to plan a trip in May 2013 to Stuttgart to visit a friend during Spring Fest.

My biggest concern (probably like all of us) is the most economical route.

I live in Key West and, needless to say, I anticipate flying from MIA or FLL.

What is the best arrival city? Frankfurt or Munich and taking the train? Or, STR itself?

In case it matters, currently, I'm a DL devotee, but I believe I'm going to switch allegiance to UA.

Thanks!

Best would be Florida-ATL-STR on DL. Usually this route is fairly competitively priced.

If you need to go to another airport, check FRA and ZRH. The trip from there to Stuttgart main train station will be faster than from MUC.

UA flies directly to STR. Next week we go BHM/IAH/FRA/STR on LH and return STR/EWR/ORD/BHM on UA.

Fly to Frankfurt. Inside the airport is a train station (5 min walk from the arrival gates). By train you have a conection each hour to STR main station.
