    During the Christmas season, our Visitors' Center will shine in festive splendour. We have prepared great activities for young and old. In addition to the attractions in the Visitors' Center, a tour guide will be on hand from 11 a.m. on Advent Sundays to explain the busy operations on the apron.
    We are happy to offer you two hours of free parking at Terminal 1 in car parks P2 and P3 during the Advent weekends.

    And of course, presents are a must at Christmas! You can already look forward to little surprises during your visit. In addition, our mascot "Fluggi", dressed in a Christmas outfit, will be handing out beautiful baking tins and delicious roasted almonds on Saturday, 7 December. And on Sunday, 8 December between 10 and 11 a.m. we are expecting a heavenly visit: our Christmas angel!

    New Insights at the Visitor Center


    Digital telescopes take visitors on a captivating journey through 100 years of airport history, offering a unique and interactive experience. Themes like economics, sustainability, and globalization are vividly brought to life, enriched by virtual elements. This exhibit, like all others in the center, was specially designed and produced to enhance the visitor experience.

    Light Routes

    The impressive light routes snake through the visitors' center over 325 meters and two floors. They precisely trace the flight paths on which the large jets take off and land. Moving running lights represent planes taking off and landing. The frequency of the running lights is based on the actual traffic at our airport in 2019.

    The Globe

    Unique worldwide: The Globe is the innovative centerpiece of our visitors' center. The 25 m² screen wall shows the entire global air traffic on the basis of real-time data. The large network of worldwide connections and the complexity of international air traffic can only be experienced so impressively in the new visitors' center at Frankfurt Airport.

    Airport City Model

    The 55 m² Airport City Model is a true-to-scale model of the entire Frankfurt Airport. Go on a discovery tour with the help of tablets and explore the individual areas of Airport City - you can get to know over 80 airport facilities in the form of texts, photos, videos and 360-degree visualizations and thus get inside airport areas that you would otherwise never see.

    Motion Ride

    Our baggage transport system is the heart of our airport. With the help of VR glasses and synchronously controlled seats, all the brave ones can experience a fast ride through the belly of our airport. Guests can feel every incline and every curve in real time. Exciting discovery tours into worlds that cannot be experienced otherwise are guaranteed here!

    Children's Stations

    Here, our younger guests feel as if they were on the airfield themselves, up close and personal with the planes. They can take on the role of an apron controller, listen to original radio sequences, let airport mascot Fluggi take off, crack the high score in one of the tablet games as a ramp agent or baggage loader, or direct an aircraft to its parking position as a marshal.
