Frankfurt with an CJ3

[BA299]

Hi all,
I'm quite new in the corporate world. Next week my boss (and airplane owner) want to flight to Frankfurt. On the flight side I feel confortable with EDDF. But I have so doubt with the slot there. Did I need a SCR to fly there?? I know that there's even Egelsbach but I prefer to fly to EDDF due to better landside structure (car rent and catering).

Regards

Although weather can be a limiting factor, Egglesbach is excellent, you can even get the pax's transport to meet them at the door of the aircraft! Highly recommended, excellent restaurant and they are very helpful.

Check:

Under Pilotinfo youŽll find a lot useful stuff...

You donŽt really need handling there. Guys at the "Luftaufsicht" very helpful.

Just to answer the question, yes you need an SCR in EDDF

Hi,
thanks for the news. I just came back from EDFE. I have found that I didn't need handling.

thanks.

Hi,
me too I have the same issue. We would like to fly from FLL to Frankfurt area but not FRA. Wich one due to suggest?? May be EDFH?? I would like to leave the aircraft there for 2-3 days.

You want to fly in on a GLEX? EDFE probably to small for that...
If you go to Hahn, be aware of the fact that it is in the woods...
There is a route planner on Hahn Airport homepage:
http://www.hahn-airport.de/default.a...u=by_car&cc=en
They do have a dedicated GAT, but its not shiny one. (but I havent been there for 3 years so maybe it changed)

Usually it shouldnŽt be a prob to park 3 days in EDDF, but getting the slots might be tricky...

I know that EDFE is a too small for the global. So i'm looking for some other airports.
I looked at the website at the slot coordinator and the it look dramatic bad.
Somebody suggested me to go to EDDK but for me it is too far (about 2 hrs by car).

[His dudeness]

Call them (slotcoordinator)...usually they are very helpful. Numbers on the webpage.

EDFH is an alternative as they are 24/24...

EDDK - downtown Frankfurt is 176 km, 150 of it Autobahn.

EDFH - downtown Frankfurt is 122 km, 85 of it Autobahn.
