It’s amazing how Frankfurt can build T3 with ease even with all those problems, while Berlin’s airport (alongside Stuttgart main station of course) remain as an embarrassment 😂

[@hanssiegling8262]

Perhaps inform yourself, stuttgart 21 is not just a main station but a massive network of new tunnels, bridges, roads, new stations that connects the city and the region with the airport and Berlin is the epitome of anti-german socialists who fuck everything up.

[@_ryanjs_6342]

BER was led and observed by state-run or state-funded companies. Same thing with the train station. Fraport is mostly private. Private corporations can't afford cost overruns as they'd have to declare bankruptcy whereas the government can use taxpayers money at ease.

[@k.r.99]

With ease? I see where you're coming from, but the planning, the pre-construction and the process of building is certainly not easy 😅 I don't deny that BER project failed for many years, but don't forget, BER was a whole airport and was meant to replace an other international airport and not "only" an extra terminal. If i remember correctly, even the switch from Istanbul Atatürk to New Istanbul Airport was quicker and done better.

[@AggroJordan86]

​@@k.r.99 mate, a new airport and a new terminal fli FRA T3 are basically the same thing in terms of construction complexity. It's the buildings, their technical equipment and the logistics Systems that drive the complexity, not the runway. The only exception being ramping up ATC. It is most definitely up to the professionalism of the project management team, and I fully agree that public companies have a significantly worse track record there. Source: worked for a government customer for 4 years and now run the ramp-up of a large logistics facility in a private company.

[@tillappelhans4985]

It might be a rumour but at some point of building BER I heard they wanted to hire Fraport to finish it, but they declined. Also, there was that joke that it would have been cheaper to deconstruct the city of Berlin and rebuild it next to a functioning airport 🙂

[@Mbarnstein62891]

I have been in Terminals 2 and 1 in 2018 and 19 respectively. Terminal 2 was simple to navigate through while Terminal 1 was like walking through a corn maze.

Just have a look at the airport from above with the two Terminals and you will understand in a second why it is like it is.

It ought to be mentioned that Frankfurt (am Main) actually has two railway stations: one for local trains, and one for long-distance trains. The latter are mostly high-speed trains that whisk you all around Germany and further into Europe. It's a remarkably smoth ride at 300 km/h from Frankfurt to Cologne.

[@Teddini]

Important to note. Frankfurt itself has many different stations. You are talking about the airport obviously. :)

[@SeverityOne]

@@Teddini Yes, you're right. My remark was in the context of the subject of the video, but a little imprecise.

The new terminal looks good. Frankfurt has continued to be the leading airport in Europe in terms of its size.

[@PaddyPatrone]

I remember 25 years ago, we often drove to the airport and went to the visitors platform and I watched the planes land and take off. You could see the US base and the C5 Galaxys over there. Thats where they build the new terminal. Frankfurt might be ugly, but they get their stuff done.

[@aslamibrahim5453]

Keep up the good work

[@mjheal]

The storytelling in this piece is great. As someone who frequently passes through FRA, I can't help but wonder how Frankfurt will manage to fill the 81,000 new vacancies. The customer journey through Frankfurt can be painfully slow, with most of the issues occurring at security and baggage. I hope that they are actively working on finding a solution to these problems and making the experience smoother for travellers. Nevertheless, I look forward to experiencing the new terminal in 2026!

[@korxx8980]

It isn't 81,000 new vacancies; They're currently employing 81,000 people and terminal 3 will add a couple of thousand new jobs likely ending up at around 100,000ish once terminal 2 has been renovated. So "only" 19,000 new vacancies.

[@flyingfeline7110]

Frankfurt is totally amazing compared to the UK, when one considers it's not even the capital city - Berlin. Manchester is the only airport outside of London that is undergoing any significant expansion - and unfortunately, it has gone for the low-cost 'Lidl look' on the outside. 68 million people are forced through Heathrow and Gatwick with only Manchester taking up some of the slack in the north. In the UK, everything revolves around London.

[@delejohnson5629]

The "Londoncentricism" in the UK is annoying to say the least. Gosh!!!

[@meckerhesseausfrankfurt4019]

Germany is far more polycentric than the UK. While Berlin has approx. 3 million more inhabitants than Frankfurt (800000 vs. 3.8 million), the Frankfurt-Rhein-Main metropolitan area is actually more populous than Berlin. You step 3 meters outside of Berlin: cow pastures. You cross the Frankfurt city limits, you enter another city with 100000 or more people.

Portland, Oregon, USA airport PDX has always been one of the top rated airports in the USA. I see many elements in this airport that are in PDX. Having the departures on top and the arrivals below is a smart layout and makes for better movement. It also has a lot of local restaurants & stores in each terminal, which makes waiting for your flight much more enjoyable.

[@gerhardma4687]

This arrangement of arrivals and departures and the other infrastructure can already be found in Terminals 1 and 2 of the airport, even though they are already decades old. This has absolutely proved its worth. I think planners around the world recognize the advantages and disadvantages of certain building forms and when you have as little space available as Frankfurt - the population around it is very dense - you have to save space and therefore you build both upwards and downwards. Maybe I'll have the pleasure of flying to Portland one day. Then I will remember your words 😀

[@AL5520]

This is definitely not new and has been implemented for years in many terminals around the world.

[@zeisselgaertner3212]

​@@AL5520 Terminal 1 in Frankfurt opened in 1972 and offered split levels for departures and arrivals from.the very beginning.

Am I the only one thinking the space between the gates seem a bit over the top? I would think an airport terminal of this size could accommodate a lot more gates and jet bridges.

[@strafrag1]

It will be a wonderful addition to FRAPORT. I'm hoping that it will eliminate the need for those awful "remote gates" where you freeze or roast while getting on/off your flight and then have to board a bus to get to/from the terminal. If anyone has any info on this, please let me know. Cheers.

[@NoZoDE]

I was on an airport tour 2 weeks ago, the guide explained some details while we were driving by in the tour bus: The G-Gate area is internally often jokingly described as G-günstig (cheap) because it was designed in coorperation with low cost airlines (don't qoute me on it but I think Ryanair). It will feature no jet ways and limited amenities, the planes will park at the gate and you will have to get down to ground level, walk to your plane and get on. This is to keep cost very low for the airlines. Areas H and J will feature jet ways and are closer related to terminal 1 in terms on amenities. Also when Terminal 3 is open, they will close Terminal 2 for a few years to completely overhaul it. The guide also made a joke that what Berlin calls the "BER Mega Airport" and "International Hub", they call "Terminal 3". The whole bus laughed Then something I read in a random new article: The airport proposed to connect Terminal 3 via a completely new train station if they were financially supported for it, the government didn't support it, so now they just run the Sky Line in between the "old" train station (only built in the late 90s) and the new terminal. But anyway I guess we wouldn't have gotten something like Frankfurt am Main Flughafen Fernbahnhof (long distance), but instead something more like the Regionalbahnhof for S-Bahn trains

Since when does the size of an area have anything to do with the number of passengers arriving at an airport?

London, on the other hand, will be the final destination for most people, because London is a major city in the whole world. Besides, Frankfurt only has around 700,000 inhabitants and London has how many? That's right, just under 9 million. If you assess this correctly, the answer is self-evident.

They were built on a greenfield site or in the sand without having to pay attention to nature, people or anything else. So in future, switch on your brain - if you have one - before you say something so stupid.

Alright have fun to handle that with the 3 Arriving and 2 Departing runways xD

[@rosshart9514]

Ha! These airport planners should ask you and your unparalleled expertise next time before they start such a foreseeable desaster.

[@funkerman86]

net zero emissions by 2045, but net 1000% increase in emissions due to additional air traffic ! now that makes total sense. Remember to use paper straws though, coz this will save the planet.

Can we get a video about CPK transport hub in Poland?

[@kalleskanal3231]

Someone played copy and paste with BER Terminal 1.

[@gerhardma4687]

Have you ever heard of form follows function?

[@kalleskanal3231]

Yes, in fact I‘m a big Bauhaus fan. That doesn‘t mean that every airport has to look the same.

[@riverward4518]

Why don't you guys cover the American city of Pittsburgh and its new $1.5 Billion dollar terminal development?

[@SukaDe]

Definetly, the present terminals have become too conjusted. Built in 1969

It's nightmare airport..I would never through FKH

[@NLForza]

great videos, but the shots of you talking arent really adding anything ;-)

So, in the Netherlands Schiphol has to shrink because of nitrogen emissions. It's nice to have 1 European Union, just across the border a lot more is possible 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@gerhardma4297]

Not much more is possible here. With an airport with so many flight movements in the middle of a conurbation, there is neither a free pass for unlimited flight movements nor all-round operation. Frankfurt has to close for around 7 hours at night
