===Terminal 1, Concourse B Observation Deck===
The open observation deck is in Terminal 1, Concourse B. 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:'''
[['''This observation deck is now closed due to redevelopment believed to be getting ready for the A380.''']]
 
:November - February: 10:00 - 18:30h
:March - October: 8:00 - 20:30h
 
'''This observation deck will also be closed 28.12.2005.'''
 
From the observation deck you can see the '''25L/R''' approach pretty well, better than '''07L/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.
