    There is also another train curve under construction, so the S7 commuter train line can run to terminal 3 which will get another underground train station. Like this, people coming or leaving by public transit to or from the central station in Frankfurt won't have to take the Skytrain to Terminal 1 and take the train station there.

    I bet the customer experience will still be bad. The connections between terminals are already bad, the automated trains are a joke. Escalators regularly fail, there's not enough personnel and the lounges are close to a scam. But, I'm happy to be proven wrong when it's finished 🙂

    Frankfurt and the region cannot handle it as the infrastructure surrounding the airport is crumbling. It will be nice to look at if you take the effort to fight your way on the autobahn or take the painful S-Bahn ride which currently suffers. It suffers from maintenance work on the routes Frankfurt-Cologne and Frankfurt-Mannheim - after which it will be not better as in the next decades the country stumbles in maintenance work to keep its neglected infrastructure somehow running.
    Lastly don't think this 3-Terminal airport will run on 3 Terminals. This is my local expectation: they will close down existing terminals or parts of it for more upgrades as they also are in an inferior state.

      The difference between Frankfurt Airport and Berlin...
      Here in Frankfurt, the state of Hesse, the city of Frankfurt, Lufthansa and BlackRock Inc. (just one of two shareholders as an example) are building up as owners and not, as in Berlin, two federal states including the state as financier and a new company. In principle, a completely new airport was built there.
      Frankfurt is not a new airport. The buildings are an extension.
      The construction process is “full of time” and will open in 2026.

      Frankfurt Terminal 3 is already nearly finished and still on time schedule. That is quite impressive if you consider the sheer size of this project (that 1 Terminal will have roughly the same capacity as the whole airport of vienna) and the fact that it has only been under construction for 4 years.

      First of all, it is simply an expansion to create capacity. The two old terminals can no longer do that.
      Terminal 1, which dates back to the 1970s, still needs to be renovated and Terminal 2 is already modern. Lufthansa wants to use both terminals for itself and convert them into a more modern terminal.
      With Termnial 3 you build for the future and initially have an alternative option.

      It makes perfect sense to expand the terminal capacity in Frankfurt. The runway capacity has been increased over a decade ago by adding the new northwest runway already. It can not be fully used though, as the ground handling capacity was limited so far. This issue will now be solved with the new terminal :)

    • @jantjarks7946
      @jantjarks7946 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Frankfurt's issues won't be solved without additional runways, which would be extremely expensive if not impossible.
      And nighttime flights won't be solved with Frankfurt's expansion either.
      It is Lufthansa that doesn't want Berlin to expand any further, as suddenly a lot of airlines could get slots in Germany. For Lufthansa that would be unwanted competition, for the aviation industry however it would be very valuable.
      And that's just the beginning of the list of issues with Frankfurt's airport.
      In Frankfurt every time the airport expands, massive protests are the result, while in Sperenberg people would love to see the airport bringing in business.

      @@jantjarks7946 If a proper hub had been built in Berlin, Lufthansa would have moved their main operations there from FRA and MUC. That was the idea in the 1990s. But instead of a massive new hub in e.g. Sperenberg, Berlin only got the massively restricted BER. But nowadays Sperenberg is not gonna happen anymore due to financial, political and environmental reasons.
      Frankfurt has runway capacity left. With the current layout 126 movements per hour are possible. The limiting factor is the restricted handling capacity in the terminals ;)
