FRANKFURT, Germany, July 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Germany's first major airport with free 24-hour Internet access - free Wi-Fi whenever travelers want access
Fraport AG (the Frankfurt Airport company) is expanding its free Wi-Fi access at Germany's largest airport from 60 minutes to 24 hours. Frankfurt Airport's (FRA) round-the-clock free Wi-Fi service is available immediately, just in time for the peak summer travel season. More than 300 Wi-Fi access points (particularly in the departures areas) facilitate Internet access in the terminals. To use the free Wi-Fi service, passengers and visitors simply log on via the Deutsche Telekom "HotSpot" Internet portal. With only a few clicks and data to get online, passengers can check their e-mails and search the Web for travel-relevant and other information. After the first 24 hours, passengers can extend their free Wi-Fi access for a further 24 hours with a just few clicks - ideal for travelers with a longer stopover at Frankfurt Airport.

We are the first major airport in Germany and one of the first in Europe to offer passengers this level of free Wi-Fi service round-the-clock. Frankfurt Airport is dedicated to meeting the needs of today's increasingly mobile and networked society."
Free Wi-Fi at Frankfurt Airport is an important element of the "Great to Have You Here!" service quality program launched several years ago by Fraport AG to introduce a wide range of service enhancements, making FRA more convenient and attractive for passengers and visitors at Germany's largest aviation hub. FRA served more 58 million passengers in 2013.
