FRA has two observation decks, of which one is permanently closed though. The one that's open is in Terminal 1, Concourse B. The other one is in Terminal 2, Concourse E right next to Mc Donald's. The fee to get on the observation deck is 3€ for adults and 2€ for teenagers up to 15 years of age, students, and handicapped people. It is free of charge for those under 6 years of age.
The opening times are:
November - February: 10:00 - 18:30h
March - October: 8:00 - 20:30h
This observation deck will unfortunately also be closed starting in 2006. From the observation deck you can see the 25L/R approach pretty well, better than 7 L/R. You are standing very close to the gates, so you will get good photo opportunities for planes that are being pushed back and for the ones that are pulling up to the gate. Here are just a couple of examples of photos taken from the deck.
