the second consecutive year, Munich Airport was named the "Best Airport
in Europe" and third best worldwide (afterSingapore Changi andHong Kong
International Airport) by Skytrax the air transport research company. As Lufthansa's
home base at Frankfurt International Airport is heavily saturated with traffic
and has capacity limits, cities with large frequencies are served through Munich
Franz Josef Strauss airport as well as Frankfurt International. The airport was
named after Franz Josef Strauss, who played an important role in German politics.
Due to the fast increase of traffic at Munich Airport , a third runway is now
being planned. It would also significantly reduce the heavy delays in the winter,
which sometimes occur during heavy snowfall. Munich city center can be reached
