Hesse: Large rush at the beginning of the autumn holidays at the airport

Frankfurt/Main (dpa/lhe) - At the beginning of the Hessian autumn holidays, there was a lot of activity at Frankfurt Airport on Saturday. The operator Fraport expected around 173,000 passengers spread over the day as well as around 1170 take-offs and landings. Despite the high volume of travelers, everything is "stable, regulated and orderly," said a spokesman in the afternoon. There were certainly queues once, but they quickly cleared up again.
