Flying into Frankfurt?

[jorge805]

Apfelwein (supposedly Ebbelwoi in the local dialect) is the drink that Frankfurt is famous for. You can get it anywhere but the place to drink it is in the Sachsenhausen area south of the river, very close on where the screens will be. Some people drink it straight, sometimes mixed with soda water. Don't care for it myself, but if you do drink it be careful. It can kick your @$$.

Thanks for the heads up there!

Thanks for the heads up there!

My warning aside, it's one of those things I think everyone should give a try, at least once.

Hey. Hey. Hey. Folks! Thanks to the greatness of Tmax, I'm now going too. I'm using frequent flyer miles ($60 in taxes) to fly from Burlington to Newark to Frankfurt on Continental.

At least we got someone else. I'm expecting the flight to be packed with Italians and Mexicans

[SnakeEyes]

I'd like to know what time people are getting in to Frankfurt.

Me?

SnakeEyes departing Des Moines at 2:13pm on 6/10 on American, connecting in Chicago O'Hare at 5:35pm on American and in Manchester at 7:10am on Lufthansa, arriving at 12:05 on 6/11.

Here is the list of when folks are arriving. I added you to the 6/11 crowd.

I live in Des Moines, it was the only way I could get a flight for less than at least $1,200. This priced $921.50 including taxes and fees, a great deal for flying out of this town where flights are always more expensive.

Ahh, ok. wasnt sure the list was arrival times.
