On 15 Februar 2024, our dedicated students from the course “Airport Management” embarked on an insightful journey at Frankfurt (Main) Airport. Accompanied by visiting lecturer Michaela Schultheiß-Münch and our research associates Ren Kajiyama and Felix Roeper, the students explored the intricacies of airport operations. From the dynamic environment of the three terminals to witnessing the choreography of take-offs and landings, every moment was a lesson in the multifaceted world of aviation. The cargo section, particularly significant for our students, provided a first-hand look at aircraft maintenance and loading procedures. Among the highlights was a surprise visit from a Canadian military aircraft, making a pit stop for refueling. A day filled with invaluable experiences, broadening perspectives on airport management.
