Flights through FRA (and just a bit on Manchester Beer & Cider Fest)

Indeed the business with 3 different planes having to do emergency landings because of a thunderstorm over Spain a few years ago is in the back of my mind. That did happen. And there have been other anonymous pilot complaints (don't want to lose their jobs). And their practices with airports, the details of which are "out there" somewhere, if you want to look them up.

It comes down to something's fundamentally wrong with how they do business, driving prices down below cost. I do not believe a 2-1/2 hour flight in a modern jet airliner can cost as little as 30€. I'm all for discounting on certain things, just not everything. And this is the sort of thing I will not support.
