Francisco CanoAugust 13, 2014This is the largest airport in Germany and one of the largest in Europe, so expect it to be very busy at all times. Lots of restaurants, stores, charging stations and of course, free Wi-Fi!Upvoted 1 week ago
MhmtaliMarch 8, 2015Frankfurt Airport offers passengers the chance to surf the Net around the clock, free of charge. The WiFi network is available through the HotSpot portal of Deutsche Telekom and its use is unlimited.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
There are multiple ways to get to Z gates from the A gates and the other way around. Always look for a Z sign sometimes they are on the left and right sides as you walk straight to the larger Z signUpvoted 3 days ago
MohammedJanuary 18, 2016Beautiful airport, 24 hours free wifi provided by Telekom but you have to register first. Have a safe trip 👐🏼..

Pankaj JuvekarAugust 1, 2018The airport is huge so check your gate well in time or you might have to run to get there. There are plenty of cafes and shops on the way which might distract you as well so be on time. 😉
Dave McJanuary 10, 2020Don’t bother planning your route by looking at the airport map, Einstein almost didn’t make it out of Germany trying to figure out that stupid map. Just follow the signs, it’s far but not confusing.
Upvoted Nov 3- Dave McJanuary 10, 2020No security during a connection, but they did check my passport the walk between was ridiculous though. 1hr!!! You should be able to call an Uber here! 🚕

Germany‘s gate to the world. You can go almost anywhere from there. I like the healthy bowls at ”Natoo“ in Terminal 1. FRA is very busy, plan enough time.Upvoted Oct 1
Roberta CorreaFebruary 25, 2018It has a yoga room! Which other airport offers it? Additionally the service at the duty free and other stores is among the best I experienced - and I do know airports!
Free Wifi - and if you have to stay for longer time at the Airport, go to the Mc Donalds at Terminal2! There are comfy couches with power outlets!
Great airport to spend up to 5 hours without getting out! A lot of shopping places, cafés and restaraunts (including authentic german one on the ground floor). Free WiFi for 24h.
M Aldoss ♏May 8, 2015One of The Biggest Airports in Europe !!! Duty-free stores are all over the Airport. If you flying from Terminal Z you Should try Traditional Bakery ... Good Quick Food before your next Flight 👍
Lina ArtistaJuly 29, 2020Great airport! Super comfortable, so easy to navigate, although it’s huge! Great service. 👌🏻 And Lufthansa airline is the best, love it! 😍
It’s very big and mostly unorganised ! Make sure you give extra time to not miss your flight !
This is one of the biggest airports I've seen. If you are in transit, make sure you have at least an hour layover. You might need to walk for 30 minutes or take a train to another terminal. Huge place- Lina ArtistaSeptember 10, 2020Great airport. Always clean. Free and stable internet. You can charge your phone everywhere. Kind staff.
I love this airport, massive, covering all your shopping, food and relaxation needs. Toilets are after every third gate - some hidden.
RossOctober 23, 2014If you are arriving from an American flight and connecting to another flight within Europe allow at least 1 hour for your connection. You will have to go through security again and the lines are hugeUpvoted Oct 15
After the renovations a few years back FRA is much nicer and always pretty efficient, even though walking distances are long. Don't forget there's now free WiFi!
Tony XerriSeptember 23, 2019One of my favorite airports because you can navigate easily to your connecting flights even when in a jam. Great selection of shopping and places to eat as well.
christianJune 8, 2016In case of a long layover, there is a quiet public lounge in the second floor, in front of the Air Canada lounge. Great place to rest and even sneak a sleep on their reclined chairs.
Simple yet lovely airport, need more of those leisure zone facilities which i love. The outdoor observation deck is a must-visit & Meyer Qualität is a must-try! Super Delicious sandwiches! I promise!
Frankfurt Airport is offering a Sweet program to loose weight, with its millions meters of corridors between connecting flights.
Aylin AlpustunJuly 31, 2022It’s huge yet really organized and I love the fact they have racks offering free magazines for international transfer passengers. Great to grab a free copy of Monocle mag, my favourite
Amazing place to spend some time lots to see and do and it really makes Frankfurt & Rhein-Main international. A great gateway to the world!!
QFebruary 22, 2020Great and massive airport. If you are a transit passenger, keep aside good enough time from one gate to another. Free WiFi and plenty of Star Alliances lounges across the terminal.
What to have a nice meal - go to Hausmann's, right in a center of T1. Service may take a little longer in rush hour, but the food is always good.
Wilson Favre-DelerueApril 13, 2021Grumpy immigration officials, grumpier security staff, long distances w/ no walkways, too little seating, F&B outlets that seem to close every time you have that evening long-haul. Horrible airport.
4 Drop off, follow signs 4 the required (Departure:Abflug, Arrivals:Ankunft). Drop-off Area. parking r located directly in front of the doors to Terminal 1 & 2. First 10 minutes r FOC.
NmNovember 29, 2019One of the top busiest airports in the world but very well organized !! It’s close to the city center (almost 20 minutes) .. The hub of Lufthansa !!
If you have a short layover you will probably miss the connecting flight. If it's Lufthansa they will sort you out efficiently and you'll have time for a hot dog and a €2 Nespresso from the automats.
The airside food options located at the intersections of the long terminal hallways here are incredible and affordable. Showers, smoking rooms, and fast access to the city make it a great layover.
Katarína DedinskáSeptember 16, 2016Really huge in here. Great lounge. Lots of facilities. Come early it is easy to lost there ;) great relaxing seats and power sockets. Excellent place for plane spotting
You have only 30min of free Internet in FRA airport. If you Reset Network setings (on Iphone you have this option) and provide another e-mail u can have another 30 min :)... and so to infinity :)
They get rid of the gate A42 (A24-A40 area), converted it to a quiet relaxing area. If you are on long layover close to it, no one will bother your siesta time here at this area(except the PA).
PavlixOctober 20, 2017Clean, modern, spacious airport with great design and cutting edge facilities for European standards. The restaurants are less interesting in terms of their variety of offerings.
Paul AndersenSeptember 27, 2019Modern and clean terminal. Definitely download the Frankfurt airport app for great deals if you travel frequently through Frankfurt. Lufthansa business lounges can be quite busy.
Maybe the biggest airport in whole Europe, and getting bigger and bigger. It is very modern, but a bit complex. You need to be alert for signs. For connections, consider more time between flights.
Am only familiar with the B terminal but that's big and keeps you busy while in transit. The McDonald's has the best view of the airfield; at least 2 duty free shops; even a place to get a quick mani!
Looking for a power source ? Head upstairs at Terminal B to Kuffler & Bucher. Ask nicely and they'll let you sit at the bar with a beer while you use their power behind the bar. 2x Recharge :-)
Marc RMay 24, 2018Terminal A has a movie lounge area tucked away to the side to relax. Watching Parks and Rec as I write this tip. Showers also available.
Umut Koray TuncayMarch 27, 2017They made me threw out my Zippo's inside mechanism, which I carried through many airports including Heathrow, JFK, La Guardia, Milano Bergamo and Istanbul Ataturk. So, safety first?
Great airport. Only thing that you should be aware of if you are a smoker, once you get in from C terminal security there's no smoking rooms unlike in B or Z.
Fuchi AzizMarch 31, 2015I loved the intl. airport big and spacious, information center explained where we can find the car rental floor! polite and helpful greet you with a smile ❤️
Juliana P.October 25, 2016There is a nice free lounge zone with extremely comfortable seats and power sockets near the A26 gate. Enjoy! https://shop.frankfurt-airport.com/en/poi/ruhezone-1/

Damian BayonaDecember 27, 2014Free and very fast wifi - was able to download a movie in less than 5 minutes. The airport is large and can be confusing, though. Noticeable difference in amenities depending on the hall you are in
. The perrenial shortage of jetways and all the "hard stands" of planes and the required shuttle busses is endlessly frustrating. choose a different airline and connect through a different hub.
Anton MotolinJanuary 10, 2020Huge airport with crowds of people wandering around as there is almost no seating, even in the cafes.
