Your FRA Layover Itinerary
4-8 hrs layover
Stay at the airport
This is one of Frankfurt's better airport-only layover ranges.
Use the airport
Use a lounge, NapCab, MY CLOUD, Movie World, Gaming World, or a proper meal instead of forcing the city.
Use a room if you need sleep
If you want a bed or shower, a room often makes more sense here than extra terminal time.
Head back to your gate area
Leave time for security and terminal movement.
Catch your flight
For many travelers, the airport is the better use of this stop.
