1.1 Fraport AG, Frankfurt Airport Services Worldwide (hereinafter “Fraport”) offers VIP services in accordance with the applicable service catalog and price list (see www.vip.frankfurt-airport.com) as special support for helping passengers of airlines to perform required tasks in connection with departing from, arriving at or transferring at Frankfurt Airport, optionally supplemented by other, special services that may be optionally requested.
If the Client wishes services from VIP-Services that are not included in the current service catalog, this must be separately clarified and agreed in writing with VIP-Services sufficiently in advance of the date for which services are requested. These incur additional costs that must also be paid by the Client.
1.2 The use of VIP services is subject to the following Terms and Conditions and to the Airport User Regulations and General Airport Regulations, which can be viewed at http://www.fraport.com/en/our-expertise/business- services/policies-and-payment-terms.html. No terms and conditions of the Client differing from these are recognized, even if they are known to Fraport and do not explicitly contradict these Terms and Conditions.
1.3 Fraport is entitled to withdraw from this contract at any time until 24 hours prior to the agreed time of performance if circumstances for which Fraport is responsible arise after confirming the order that render it impossible for Fraport to fulfil the order. However, this does not apply to cases in which Fraport immediately, and no later than 24 hours prior to the agreed time of performance, informs the customer of this. Any payments already made will then be refunded without delay.
1.4 In accordance with EU Directive 1107/2006, passengers with limited mo- bility are entitled to a separate, free service that must be requested in advance from the airline or tour operator. If wished, passengers with limited mobility can also be assisted within the scope of the VIP services to the extent defined for this service against payment of the fee agreed for it, provided that they do not require medical care, they are not bedridden, they are able to use stairs without assistance, and the fact of their limited mobility was communicated when booking the service. Otherwise it may not be possible to provide any support for them within the context of the VIP services or only with considerable waits.
1.5 Use of VIP services does not release the Client from complying with officially mandated requirements such as aviation security, passport and customs checks, unless an official exemption from these has been granted.
When arriving from a non-EU country with merchandise and/or cash money or cash equivalents that must be declared, you may not use the VIP lounges until you have applied to the main customs office (Haupt- zollamt) of Frankfurt am Main for your declaration to be processed by a customs officer on site at one of the lounges (a fee will be charged for this service). You must inform the staff of the VIP Services that you have done so prior to entering the lounge. The same requirement applies if you have a continuing flight to a destination within the European Union.
When departing on a direct flight to a destination outside the EU, cash and cash equivalents must be reported before entering the security zone at the airport. When flying to another destination within the EU in order to transfer there to another flight, you must declare cash and cash equivalents to customs at the last EU airport.
Information on current customs allowances and the obligation to declare cash and cash equivalents exceeding €10,000 is available at www.zoll.de.
1.7 No claim to support exists, even when a booking has been confirmed, if it should be impossible to provide services due to force majeure, strike, bad weather, official actions or other circumstances for which Fraport cannot be held responsible. In addition, Fraport reserves the right to reject booking requests from clients who have previously shown inappropriate conduct, e.g. causing damage to facilities, drunkenness or assaulting personnel.

5.2 Special services may only be booked as additions to a booked VIP service package.
5.3 By making a booking, a Booking Agent declares that he or she has been requested and authorized by the traveling Client(s) to book VIP services with legally binding effect on their behalf or is making the booking in his or her own name. The contractual partner is the person whose name is entered in the booking form as such.
5.4 Bookings for VIP services must be made in good time, i.e. at least 24 hours before the flight event, by providing all required information in accordance with the current flight schedule of Frankfurt Airport (scheduled time of arrival, in short STA, and scheduled time of depar- ture, in short STD) to VIP-Services using the booking form. After making booking by phone, the correctness of the details of the booking must be confirmed in writing by the Client or Booking Agent by additionally sending them by email or fax as per section 5.1.
5.5 A booking becomes legally binding when VIP-Services sends confirma- tion of it by email. The Client or Booking Agent pledges to check the booking confirmation for correctness and immediately notify VIP-Services of any errors by sending an email to vip-services@fraport.de.
5.6 A booking cannot be confirmed unless and until credit card details are provided or advance payment is made. Until this is done, booking requests are administered in a waiting list. Credit cards are not charged until after booked services have been provided.
5.7 VIP-Services always endeavors to confirm booking requests as soon as possible. However, if there is heavy demand it may be necessary to place a Client on a waiting list.
Bookings on the waiting list can be confirmed, following prior consul- tation by phone between VIP-Services and the Client or Booking Agent, until one hour before the scheduled time of departure or just before the estimated time of arrival. Booking Agents are then obliged to inform Clients that the booking has been accepted.
5.8 When a booking is made at short notice, i.e. less than 12 hours prior to the scheduled time of departure or arrival according to the flight schedule, a surcharge amounting to 25% is due on the total value of the booking.

5.9 Changes to bookings made for the same day are free of charge if a re- quested change is confirmed by VIP-Services. The provisions of section 6 below apply if a requested change cannot be confirmed for the same day due to heavy demand, as well as to all other changes to bookings.
If a Client or Booking Agent wants a flight to be rebooked in connection with changing booked VIP services, they must authorize VIP-Services in writing to do so. This authorization can be provided by printing out, com- pleting and signing the form available at www.vip.frankfurt-airport.com and then faxing or emailing it (see 5.1) or directly giving it to VIP-Services at the airport.
5.10 If a Client expresses special additional wishes that are not part of a booked service package, these are separately charged and invoiced.
6.1 Booked and bindingly confirmed services of VIP-Services may be cancelled free of charge up until 24 hours prior to the scheduled time of arrival or departure (STA / STD) according to the flight schedule of Frankfurt Airport by sending an email to vip-services@fraport.de.
Between 24 and 12 hours before the STA or STD as applicable: 50% of the value of the booking.
Fewer than 12 hours before the STA or STD as applicable: 80% of the value of the booking.
6.2 Clients who fail to appear and receive booked services that have been confirmed by VIP-Services (no show) will be charged 100% of the value of the booking.
6.3 The personnel of VIP-Services wear nametags to identify themselves at the arranged meeting point. The Client must then identify himself or herself to the VIP agent. If he or she fails to do so and take advantage of the booked VIP services within an appropriate amount of time (until deplaning has been completed), this will be construed as a no show and the entire value of the booking will be charged.
7.1 The costs for VIP services must normally be paid either in advance or by credit card. If a Client wishes to receive and pay an invoice instead, this must be separately agreed; the prerequisite for this is a documen ted flawless payment history on the part of the Client (see section 7.2).
7.2 The prices for VIP-Services are indicated in the current price list of VIP-Services, which can be viewed on the VIP-Services website at www.vip.frankfurt-airport.com.

If you use a booking screen in our services to book travel services (e.g. flights or hotel accommodations) or other services (e.g. tours at the airport), we or the contracted service provider capture the data that are required to fulfill and execute your booking request and pass it on to third parties (e.g. airlines, travel offices, etc.) to the extent required to meet your request. In some cases additional data privacy conditions may apply to these services and associated services provided by third parties (e.g. preparation of data for processing by an airline). For details, please consult the information available from the provider in question. Fraport may use the data received for calculating and settling commissions.
You can—after specially registering or as a guest—purchase products and services from Fraport or other sellers at Frankfurt Airport Online Shopping.
