Frankfurt Transportation Security RACIST
I travel at least 5 times a year by plane. I flew with Lufthansa regularly since 1986, except for some arrogant staff, it was OK. last February while flying back through Frankfurt back to Manchester UK, while boarding, I was stopped by Frankfurt Security Officer who asked me tens of questions about my flight to the UK. I tried to explain to her that I work as a doctor in England for 12 years and I carry an EU passport and according to EU freedom of travel, she had no right to stop me boarding. She insisted that she needs proof of residence in the UK!!
This is like an American flying from Washington to New York and security asks him for a US visa!!!
there was tens of similar passengers who carry the passport like me travelling on the same plane who never got stopped. The question she asked was private question about where I work what speciality..etc in front of other passenger, she was very rude, arrogant, unfriendly and very racist. I believed I was stopped because of my skin colour. I complained to Lufthansa who did not take any action, there was no reassurance that this will never happen again. I decided not to travel to or through Germany. I nearly paid twice with another airline not to travel with Lufthansa. The new Transportation Security company that runs Lufthansa took over in 2006, their orders were clear to target certain passengers from certain ethnic background..If you are dark skin, you will be treated with disrespect and humiliated in Germany!!
