CEO Bender: "Lufthansa's Support for Frankfurt Important for Airport Expansion"
Fraport Applauds Construction of New Lufthansa Administration Building at FRA

Frankfurt, Germany (ots)

Fraport AG's Executive Board Chairman,
Dr. Wilhelm Bender, described today's construction launch of the new
Lufthansa administration building at Frankfurt Airport (FRA) as
important support for FRA's planned expansion. "This clear signal
from our main customer here at Frankfurt is a tremendous help," said
Bender in connection with Fraport's application for the regional
planning procedure (ROV) on airport expansion at FRA. Bender thanked
Stefan Lauer, Lufthansa Executive Board Member, who at today's
ground-breaking ceremony declared: "We want Frankfurt to remain our
main hub".
In September 1998, Fraport sold Lufthansa this land, which is
located just north of the existing Lufthansa base at FRA. The first
phase of the Lufthansa administrative office complex will feature 10
building "fingers", providing a 19,500 square meters of space for
about 1,650 staff positions. Lauer stressed that, with the
corresponding growth in air traffic, the complex could be expanded to
provide workplaces for some 4,500 staff. An important prerequisite
for this would be the creation of additional capacity at FRA,
resulting from further expansion of the runway system.
