Regarding waiting time for the result and your flight: Please note that they will take 2 samples. If the PCR test fails with the first sample, they will try again with the second sample.
So you should definitely take some more time! For me it happened once and the result took about 7.5 hours instead of 3.
probably less than 10 minutes wait, was better than I expected. But I’d be concerned doing the test morning of a flight leaving FRA, unless my flight leaves in the evening. An afternoon departure could easily become problematic.
