Passengers travelling from Berlin Brandenburg Airport should allow sufficient time for their journey and departure procedures. Official BER travel guidance recommends planning enough time and checking the airline’s check-in and boarding deadlines before travelling.

Allow enough time at BER Airport

The required arrival time depends on the airline, destination, baggage and departure procedures. Passengers should check their airline’s information and include time for baggage drop-off, security control and the walk to the departure gate.

Check your terminal before departure

BER uses Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. Both terminals are located next to each other, but passengers should confirm the correct terminal before starting their journey.

Plan your journey to BER

Public transport connections and road traffic can affect the time needed to reach the airport. Travellers with an early flight, additional luggage, children or a fixed appointment should include an appropriate time reserve.

Airport transfer planning

A pre-booked airport transfer allows the pickup address and departure time to be arranged in advance. Passengers should provide the correct terminal, flight number, pickup location and planned departure time.
