The New York Times reports on an innovative coat check service being offered at Frankfurt Airport, Germany’s main hub. This is an ingenious idea, as bulky coats will no longer be jam-packed in overhead bins. The article, “A Winter Innovation: The Airport Coat Check,” reports that Frankfurt has expanded its winter-coat service that it introduced last year as a holiday promotion.
Another coat-check service is offered by Korean Air for its passengers at Incheon International Airport in South Korea.
The standard daily price for checking a winter coat at Frankfurt is 50 euro cents, about 67 cents in the United States. At Incheon, Korean Air provides it free to passengers.
