Frankfurt Airport

Frankfurt Airport is the largest in Germany, it is an important transit hub that processed 52 million passengers in 2005, it therefore processes the third most air travelers in Europe, after London-Heathrow and Paris-Charles de Gaulle. There are plans to expand the airport with a fourth runway, but the decision about this has been postponed many times.

There are two terminals at the airport, a third terminal is under construction on the grounds of the former American air base on the south side of the airport. The new terminal is intended for intercontinental flights.

The connection between the terminals is maintained by Skyline, an automatic train.
