Latest airport reviews
This is the second time that I’m using the airport. Both times they opened my staff without any concern or asking me to do it instead of them and pretending to check the liquids, they decided to take one without informing me why I’m not allowed to take it with me. Their response I don’t understand English! Which they perfectly did.. especially when you seem to be in hurry or a vulnerable weak person that won’t cause anything to them, purposely they are delaying you and taking whatever they can.. this time a “lovely” person with glasses and white medium length hair did this and on purpose was delaying me after informing her that my flight leaves in 10 min… she didn’t care at all! After mentioning that she was going slower than ever as nothing is happening! I’ve never seen such unacceptable experience in my life… hope I’ll never have to visit their airport again .. after all I may have some goodies that will be valuable to them but I won’t have the right to take them with me although legally is okay..
Recently flew from Bordeaux to Frankfurt- was really shocked at how bad the airport was! No seating available and limited services, dark and dirty, and very poor signage to advise of flights - really disappointing! Such a poor representation of a beautiful city.
When do we expect to have a minimum quality of service and proper seat installation on this airport. Gate 61 today.
I’m really disappointed
