Today in Rhein-Main: wing trimmed on the tap

Good evening,

Marie Lisa Kehler

Deputy head of the regional section of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.

• Follow I follow

how sorry he was, the young traveler, who only realized on the train to Frankfurt airport that his flight was departing from Frankfurt Hahn.

Without him, as he quickly realized.

It didn't help that all fellow travelers immediately tried to organize a lift for him.

Or at least a shuttle bus.

The scheduled time buffer was insufficient.

There are many stories like this around Hahn Airport.

The Chinese management of Hahn Airport in Hunsrück has now applied to the Bad Kreuznach district court to open insolvency proceedings.

Airport operations manager Christoph Goetzmann has also confirmed the initiation of the procedure.

He is silent on how to proceed.

The right to information lies with the preliminary insolvency administrator.

It is also their responsibility to operate the company until it has been decided whether insolvency proceedings will even be opened.

But he can also, at least in theory, advocate a quick shutdown of operations in order to prevent further money from being “burned”. 

It is no secret that the airport has not been in good order for a long time.

One reason was the change in strategy of the low-cost airline Ryanair.

This wanted to move away from regional airports to large airports like Frankfurt.

Hessen still holds 17.5 percent of the airport, but has no financial obligations, as airport expert Jochen Remmert writes.

The book fair opens

One or two book fair visitors will also have landed in Hahn.

An impressive number, so the first reaction.

After all, it has hardly been a year since even a meeting with your closest friends became an illegal event.

But this book fair will definitely not break visitor records.

And yet it gives cause for hope.

2000 exhibitors from 80 countries will be represented. In 2019 there were still 7,500 exhibitors. "Back to business is by no means back to normal," says Book Fair Director Juergen Boss. It is not the bare numbers that make a book fair a success, but the people who visit it. People who come into contact and network on the sidelines of the official program. Sometimes the non-appearance of an author is what makes the headlines. Activist Jasmina Kuhnke, whose Twitter account has more than 100,000 followers, announced on Monday that she would not present her debut novel “Black Heart” at the fair. She is regularly threatened by right-wing extremists and I don't feel safe because of the presence of the Jungeuropa publishing house. That sparked a debate:Where does freedom of expression end? Florian Balke captured the mood at the fair.

Where do you actually read the really big novels? On the couch? In bed? Reading has something to do with enjoyment. With time. Some people like to create a relaxed atmosphere. A candle is lit here, an additional pillow is organized for the back, and in winter a chain of lights creates a cozy atmosphere.

If you are looking for what you don't actually need but want, you would be right with Jürgen Andreas. He and his family run a wholesale business for decorative items. The phrase “would be correct” sounds so cautious because the large halls in which he sells around 45,000 items are only accessible to traders.

Using the example of "Deko-Andreas", she explains why Dietzenbach of all places is where the entire world economic situation is depicted.

Trade fair cancellations in Asia, delivery problems from overseas,

- everything that happens in the global world is felt early on by the entrepreneur.

Also the positive trend for him to invest in quality rather than disposable products.

By the way: Jürgen Andreas warns of a shortage of Advent candles.

This is because the wax is obtained from a by-product of kerosene production, among other things.

The fuel was used less last year, which is why there is now less wax.

Just a tip.

Christmas is just around the corner. 

And in addition, the state government wants to merge the tax offices in several major Hessian cities +++ construction sites in downtown Frankfurt and the conversion to a bicycle-friendly city often curb traffic, especially on the banks of the Main +++ Chancellor Angela Merkel opened the northwest runway of the ten years ago Airport.

Stay healthy,

Marie Lisa Kehler
