Storage at Frankfurt Germany Airport
 
Hello Everyone:<BR>Thanks so much to all who previously gave me some answers about hotels near airport and info about Frankfurt in general.<BR><BR>In looking at the sites suggested for the airport, one thing that was absent was any mention of daily storage facilities for carry on luggage.<BR><BR>Since I am to have a 12 hour layover on the first leg of my trip, obviously any 'walking around in Frankfurt' will require that I store my carry on luggage somewhere.<BR><BR>So my newest question is: "Are there such places at the airport in Frankfurt?"<BR><BR>In thinking about my travels in USA, I don't recall seeing such, but I was actually never looking for them. But, I hope all airports have such.<BR><BR>Thanks for any info you can provide.

The first time I ever flew into Frankfurt Airport I had to laugh. It was very easy to find the X rated movie theater but more difficult to find the baggage storage.

Sam, thanks so much for your helpful info. It seems to fit the bill exactly. And, Philip, thanks for your bit of humor also. So, Philip, should I keep my raincoat out of storage and take it with me to the movie?

Why not just check-in your baggae to final destination from your initial. I believe it should work.Pls check with your airline.<BR><BR>Good luck.

Hal, just keep a pair of dark glasses with you so that you won't be recognized. You can follow all the men in suits straight to the Blau Kino.

To Gan: I was concerned about my carry on luggage. Obviously if I didn't need to 'carry on' then I could check everything through. However, I can't believe that any experienced traveler checks everything through. In that event, when your checked luggage is lost, you haven't even a toothbrush and shaver.<BR><BR>To Philip: OK, I haven't been to such a place in a 100 years, but I might see where all the guys are going.<BR><BR>Hal
