However, due to ongoing technical problems with the international type of ICE trains used on this route, many of the departures by ICE train are currently experiencing short notice cancellations.

On the majority of dates until mid April, due to maintenance works on the railways around Frankfurt (Main), these trains will be commencing their journeys in the station a Frankfurt Flughafen / Airport, so direct journeys won't be available.
