[edit] Page naming

The wiki naming convention specifies english language translations, so this should be Franz Josef Strauss International Airport, were it not for the fact that it also seems, according to its website, to call itself Munich International Airport. So perhaps the Franz Josef Strauss bit should in any event be a redirect?

[edit] Transportation out of the airport

Freising can be reached by bus, though I can't remember the number right now. More importantly, to go by train north(east)wards from the airport it is better to go to Freising and take the train from there as you save some 60 minutes travel-tme. Oh, and somewhere it should be mentioned that the ticket-machines (for collective transport including train outside Munich) are rather hard to use and that it pays to buy from the people in the ticket-desk just by the ticket-machines. And daycard ("tageskarte") rules.
