>Auch mehr als zwei Monate nach der Kommunalwahl ist unklar, wann Frankfurt eine neue Stadtregierung bekommt. Offenbar bahnt sich nun aber eine Lösung an: CDU, Grüne und SPD bilden eine Koalition – die mit Volt kooperiert. Die Dezernentin von Volt, Eileen O‘Sullivan bliebe dann im Amt. Volt könnte auch an Koalitionsrunden teilnehmen, hätte dort aber kein Vetorecht, um Beschlüsse der drei Partner zu verhindern.

Hi all,

I heard about Frankfurt airport recently opening up the new Terminal 3. All the nice lounges have moved there including the new one that is after security and passport control. I will be flying in from Austria to Terminal 1 (still in Schengen) to catch a flight to the US (non-schengen) that is also in Terminal 1. My layover is long and so I was wondering if I can get to Terminal 3 to use the lounge first and then come back to Terminal 1 to depart the non-schengen flight. Would this be possible if my flight departs in Terminal 1? If anyone can provide advice on how to navigate the airport that would greatly be appreciated. I wonder if they will let me through security and passport control in Terminal 3 if my ticket has a gate in Terminal 1.

Hey everyone

Bit of a random post, but would anyone in Frankfurt be interested in a super beginner-friendly crochet workshop?

I recently left my corporate job and before starting my next role, I wanted to spend some time doing slower and more meaningful things, meeting people, being creative, etc.

Crochet helped me through some rough periods in life and I’ve always loved how calming and grounding it is. So I thought maybe it would be nice to share it with other people too.

Absolute beginners are welcome. Like “I have never touched yarn in my life” level welcome 👶💗

I’d provide the yarn and hooks. The fee would be very small/symbolic since I’m mostly doing this for the community aspect and to see if people would even enjoy something like this.

Minimal means around €10 including materials. If you already have your own crochet materials ( hook and yarn) then honestly just pay whatever you feel the session was worth and whatever you feel you learned !

Also, I’m currently learning German myself, so no pressure language-wise. I speak English and Arabic, and my German currently survives mostly through vibes and confidence 😂

Would anyone actually be interested in this?

Everyone is welcome ofc💗

(Extra discount if you’re C1 German and willing to emotionally support my grammar 😂)

From upcoming Friday I’ll be a few days in Frankfurt, does anyone have tips for me, maybe some places to visit, pm me if you have tips friends or something would also be great (m 22)

Hi! I am visiting Frankfurt for the Metallica concerts this weekend, the 2 day show tickets (Friday and Sunday) came with a RMV KombiTicket, on the KombiTickets it seems to list the valid dates of the ticket from May 22nd until the 25th at 3am. My question is, is it really only valid for the show dates (22nd & 24th)to get to the show? Or would I be able to use transportation on Saturday the 23rd with it as well? Thank you in advance for the help!

Servus Leute,

ich muss bald für eine Woche nach Hamburg und fahre mit dem ICE ab Frankfurt Hbf. Da ich selbst im letzten Dorf über zwei Stunden weg von Frankfurt wohne, wollte ich mit dem Auto anreisen und es dort parken. Die ICE Tickets sind gebucht, aber ich verzweifle gerade bei der Suche nach einer Parkmöglichkeit in/um Frankfurt herum? Möchte mir etwas fest buchen, bevor ich vor Ort Panik bekomme. 😅 Kenne mich aber in Frankfurt nicht aus.

Könnt ihr mir etwas empfehlen? Ein Fly and Park macht doch nicht so viel Sinn, denn wie komme ich da zum Hauptbahnhof? Oder gibt es günstige Parkplätze in der Umgebung, dass man mit der S-Bahn in die Stadt reinfahren kann?

Ich bin über jede Hilfe froh!

Grüße, Tom

I’m trying to book international train journeys involving Frankfurt Hbf/oder for future dates, but a lot of routes seem unavailable or impossible to reserve.

For example:

• Frankfurt → Kraków
• Milan → Frankfurt

What’s strange is that other routes seem bookable, but anything involving Frankfurt either shows no trains, no prices, or no reservation options.

Is this because of:

• construction works at Frankfurt Hbf?
• timetable changes?
• delayed international ticket releases?
• or something else?

I checked DB and other apps/websites and get similar issues.

Has anyone else noticed this or knows when these routes usually become available?

Thanks!

As the title suggests. Have you or anyone in your circle trains at MMA Spirit or used to go there. How’s your experience been? How are the trainers?

How much do they prioritize safety and right technique?

Any pointers or input are welcome.

Hi there. I am visiting over the weekend and i crave for some shawarma with pickles and stuff since weeks. I hoped to pick some up on my bike ride.
Where could i get some good and affordable? So general 'Imbiss' frame, not some restaurant or something.
I think of the area around the Leipziger Straße maybe, idk.

Hey, hat sonst noch jmd im Bereich Bockenheim kein WLAN mehr (Anbieter: Telekom)?

Bei uns ist es vor 10min einfach komplett ausgefallen und es geht gar nichts mehr. Im Internet finde ich sonst keine Infos.

Ein Kommunalpolitiker aus Frankfurt stand eigentlich wegen Beihilfe zur Schleusung vor Gericht. Doch im Saal machten ihm Zeugen weitere schwerwiegende Vorwürfe. Der Polizei ist der ehemalige Weggefährte von Frankfurts Ex-OB Feldmann schon seit Jahren bekannt.

Hi everyone,

I’m a 32F from Czechia and I’ve just received a job offer in Frankfurt for 60k EUR/year. I’m super excited, but also honestly quite nervous.

The biggest thing on my mind is whether such a huge life change is actually worth it. Right now, I have a very comfortable life at home and even a slightly higher net income, so financially it’s not necessarily a big upgrade. But I feel like this experience could really shape me as a person, push me out of my comfort zone, and maybe help me grow professionally in the future as well.

I’d love to ask people living in Frankfurt a few questions.

First, is 60k considered a good salary for a single person? And is it difficult to find a flat for a foreign women with such salary? I don't mind the flat share either. The company address is on the North of the city.

I don’t drink much, party, or smoke. I mostly cook at home and live quite simply. What I really enjoy, though, is sports, nature, hiking, and long-distance trails, so I usually spend my weekends somewhere in the woods. On Google Maps, the surroundings of Frankfurt look surprisingly green, but I’m not sure what the reality is like. Are there good places nearby for hiking and nature escapes?

One thing I’m slightly worried about is how Czechs are perceived there. In the past, I’ve occasionally experienced some weird prejudice in Germany, so I’m curious about the general atmosphere. I’m also quite introverted, and being shy already makes communication difficult sometimes, especially when you feel like people may already have certain opinions about you.

I’d honestly really appreciate your thoughts, especially from people who moved to Frankfurt alone or native Frankfurt residents. It would genuinely help me decide whether to stay in my comfort zone or just go a little wild and try something new :)

Thank you! And if you’re from Frankfurt and would maybe like to grab a coffee or go for a walk sometime, feel free to DM me :)
