and the UA gate might make you get another BP from them in the morning. I was even told once by the UA staff (contractors) that I had to get a physical BP instead of my mobile BP at FRA. The good news is that, as UAPremExecflyer noted, you will usually get a BP in PRG that will be enough to get you through security in the AM at FRA (I'm assuming that you will be staying at a hotel for the long layover).
