Prior to boarding their flight to contest their Champions League semifinal second leg match against Real Madrid, FC Bayern already took the lead at Munich Airport: To complement the big FC Bayern flagship store in the Munich Airport Center, the perennial Bundesliga champions opened a second fan shop in the Terminal 2 departure area (Schengen level).

Dr. Michael Kerkloh commented:

– With FC Bayern and Munich Airport, two partners have joined forces that both play at the top level of their respective Champions Leagues.”

Uli Hoeness was delighted with the new store:

– This new location puts FC Bayern in the shop window at the world’s most beautiful airport.”

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge praised the “innovative look” of the new, 60-square-meter shop:

– With this impressive presence right next to the gates in Terminal 2, FC Bayern can attract both hometown and international fans with its apparel, memorabilia and souvenirs.”
