Arrive in time

The information published on this page is current as of the date of publication or update.

Travelling and flying during the Corona pandemic have become more wearisome due to the currently valid distancing and hygiene rules as well as the verification and documentation obligations. It is therefore important that passengers should make good preparations for their flight and, in particular, travel to the airport in good time. 

1. Currently, all departures and arrivals are via Terminal 1 of BER. Terminals 2 and 5 are not in operation at the moment. 
2. Passengers should be in the terminal two hours prior to their departure time and make their way through the security check as soon as possible after checking in. 

BER Airport is well connected to both the road and rail network. You may therefore conveniently travel to the airport with your own car, a car-sharing vehicle, taxi or public transport.

By car: 

• You may travel conveniently by car to Terminal 1 via the A113 motorway and the local road B96a 
• The direct route is via the A113 motorway; Exit “Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg”.
• The address for your navigation device is: 

Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg

Willy-Brandt-Platz

12529 Schönefeld

• In front of Terminal 1, more than 10,000 parking spaces are available in five multi-storey car parks and three ground level car parks. Parking spaces may be booked in advance at https://parken.berlin-airport.de/en/.
