Europe EES queue?

[daft009]

Sorry guys for asking this but I couldn't find the thread.

How are the queues at Frankfurt arrivals now?
For these needing to the EES thing at arrival

I'm flying over in mid Sept and would like to book a domestic flight within Germany so unsure how much time to allow.

I think it would depend on what time of day you arrive. If it's in the morning, I would expect very long queues as so many intercontinental flights arrive then. Allow 3+ hours for the connecting flight. In the mid-afternoon it could actually be OK.

I flew into LIS last week, from outside the Schengen Area. I had heard many horror stories, but landing at 7pm we were the only flight coming in at that time and there was no line.

It was slow going at FRA in the evening when we went through in February. There are flights arriving in the late afternoon/evening from Asia, Japan etc. We were 10th in the queue and it took 30 minutes to get through, with a couple officers working.
