FRS Rhine Ferries Launch Website with Real-Time Info Ticker for Timetables

Flensburg, August 4, 2025 – The FRS Loreley Ferry and the FRS Rhine Ferry between Ingelheim and Oestrich-Winkel now present themselves with a joint, fresh web presence. The centerpiece of the new website is a ticker on the homepage that instantly shows whether ferry operations are affected, for example, by weather conditions or events. This allows passengers to get reliable updates at a glance—without having to make a phone call or send an email.

All Information at a Glance

At www.frs-rheinfaehren.de, passengers will find all details about both ferry connections consolidated in one place. The new site impresses with its modern design, clear navigation, and user-friendly structure optimized for smartphones, tablets, and desktops alike. Timetables, fares, and frequently asked questions are accessible with just a few clicks.

More Than Just a Ferry: Excursion Tips

Tourist content also features prominently: both locals and visitors will find inspiration for activities, sightseeing tips, and information about regional events. From castles and vineyards in the Middle Rhine Valley to cultural highlights around Ingelheim and the Rheingau region, the website offers real added value for anyone looking to explore the Rhine.
“The new website provides greater clarity and offers real added value for our passengers,” says Tim Kunstmann, Managing Director of the FRS ferry lines on the Middle Rhine. “Whether commuter or tourist, anyone wanting to find out about our ferry routes will now find all relevant information bundled on a modern platform.”

New Look, Clear Direction

The goal of the relaunch is to further emphasize the regional importance of the two ferry routes while providing a contemporary user experience. The new web presence is fully integrated into the FRS corporate design and represents another significant step within the FRS family.
