There seem to be quite a few B00 arrivals according to LH's FRA arrival and departure information.

BTW, does anyone know what CNS (as an arrival gate) stands for?
Arriving from non-Schengen countries like the UK, you can have a gate arrival in A, but then have to go downstairs and still take the bus to the non-Schengen bus arrival in B.
This can happen to longhaul arrivals as well.

In the evening (after the last TATL flight to BOS has left) UK arrivals often use A gates and pax don't have to be bussed.

Rather than adding details of Pier A in the first post which might cause confusion, I will try and list the quirks and mysteries of non-Schengen Pier A in the second post.
