Poster: A snowHead

Afternoon all,
I have to do this route several times over the coming season and wanted to find out if anyone has transited through Frankfurt on the way to Salzburg and if so did they encounter any problems with security,delays,baggage etc. All info greatly appreciated.

briand6868, I booked with Lufthansa from London - Frankfurt - Salzburg. the 2nd leg is with a smaller Austrian airline, I forget which (Tyrolean?), and I was told that while skis were included to Frankfurt I would have to call the Austrian airline to book my skis on for the second leg and it would be chargeable. I cancelled.

holidayloverxx, Hi and thanks for the heads up, I called Lufthansa to enquire and they said as both legs of the journey are Lufthansa codes LH 983 and LH 1104 that skis are included even though the second leg is on Tyrolean, but I'm going to email them aswell so I have something on paper before I book, don't want to turn up at the airport and get a shock.

that was my understanding.
need to tell them you're bringing skis/board+boots+helmet, and at check-in say "i want to check in 1 bag and some skis". bags should be checked thru afaik, but you'll do the Schengen zone immigration (pretty quick IME), and security again (possibly - maybe only if you go from 1 terminal area to another). Friend got thru OK at 8pm on a Friday Leeds-FRA-Johannesburg with 1 hour between scheduled landing and scheduled boarding.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

briand6868, andy, I reckon I was given duff info! I only raised it with them cos they changed the flight time and it was inconvenient so I called them and asked "while I was on, can I book my skis on". grrr.
