NUE - SeaportDanube port Regensburg
Regensburg has no airport with scheduled cargo services. Air freight is routed via Munich (MUC), reached via the A93 and A92, or Nuremberg (NUE) via the A3, and for freighter capacity via Frankfurt (FRA). The city has its own port on the Danube, operated by bayernhafen, which handles bulk goods, containers and heavy cargo; overseas containers usually come via Hamburg, Bremerhaven or the Adriatic port of Koper.
The A3 (Nuremberg, Passau, Austria) and the A93 (Munich, Hof) meet at Regensburg. The bayernhafen Regensburg on the Danube is a trimodal hub with rail and road connections, linking the region with the Rhine via the Main-Danube Canal and with Southeastern Europe via the Danube.
