Im traveling from Slovenia (LJU) to New York (EWR) with my connection flight in FRANKFURT.
Both or my flight are with Lufthansa - so my arrival and departure is from the Terminal 1.

My flights numbers are:
LH 1461 - from LJU to FRK at 12:15
LH 402 - from FRK to EWR at 13:35

I checked previous flights and it seems that my arrival is gonna be somewhere from the gates A (most likely A1 i believe) and my departure at the gates Z.
i know it's the same terminal but i'm really worried 1h and 20min won't be enough time to catch my next flight. Does anyone know if 1h 20min is enough?

And im guessing i wont need to recheck my luggage? Do i need to go though security, if yes how long does that take?
Welcome to FlyerTalk, ana_volley7!

For the last couple of days LH1461 arrived at ASW which is a bus arrival gate under A/Z concourse. You will have to go through document check and passport control but there is no need to clear security unless you are picked for a random check. Your luggage can be checked through to EWR so there is no need to recheck it in FRA.

1 hr 20 mins should be enough as long as your flight from LJU is on time or only slightly late.

Hi, I need your help. Does anyone know that I need to pass a passport and security check if my booking number is the same on both flights? My flight numbers are: LH 983 and I have a transfer to WY 116. Thank you very much

What route is this? What nationality? Any Schengen / non-Schengen will have a passport check, and you will likely have to clear security again. Are you on one ticket or two?

What are the two flights? It would eb easier for you to post this that to require people you are asking for help to look it up.

LH983 is DUB-FRA and WY116 is FRA-MCT on Oman Air. *

Since both DUB and MCT are in non-Schengen you don’t need to go through passport control in FRA. WY flights appear to depart from C gates so you will have to clear transfer security.

* People who post in this forum have not memorised all flight numbers even for LH flights. It would be helpful if you could include routes when asking questions here.

Apologies if this is the incorrect thread for this question.

I connect in FRA (and MUC) a lot. Since I have a UK passport I make use of the automatic Passport gates to pass from Schengen to non-Schengen and vice versa.

i haven’t been able to find information as to whether UJK passport holders will still be allowed to use these after January 31st. (Perhaps the answer is still “we don’t know”).

There will be no visible changes after January 31. What is unknown at this point is what happens after the implementation period, ie next year.

My wife and I have a 60 minute connection at FRA on one ticket booked with LH, the itinerary is LUX-FRA-LYS. It looks like LUX-FRA arrives on the tarmac (ASW) so we'd be bussed to the terminal. Lately FRA-LYS departing from A11.

Should we be good to go? I read the wiki, looks like the bus takes us to the A5 area and we do not need to clear transfer security or passport control. One more thing, we have economy class tickets and carry on luggage only. LUX-FRA is Lufthansa CityLine on a CRJ-900. How is luggage space and should we be concerned we might have to check our roll ons either at check in or at the gate?

thanks

Thats one of the easiest connections but 60 minutes is never fun at FRA

You may well be required to gate check roller boards on a CR9

Thanks, if we have to gate check then we have to wait for the bag at FRA which would slow us up, right? Would it be better to proactively check the bags through at LUX to avoid problems connecting at FRA?

thanks

Gates are not pre-determined at FRA. Your LYS flight could conceivably depart from pretty much any A gate, or indeed could be an apron position as well. As chris63 says, you may be forced to gate-check rollers. This wouldn't slow you down a great deal but if they are larger you may just want to check them to LYS proactively.
