Generally, in Germany public transportation is running less frequent
on Dec 24th to Dec 26th; on the 24th it is comparable to a Saturday
and the 25th and 26th are public holiday, so transportation is running
like on a Sunday. As I know, the Lufthansa Shuttle operates on the
same schedule every day, so there should be no problem on these days
(to be sure, you could contact Lufthansa). Shops normally close on the
24th around noon and stay closed during the 25th and 26th.
