Berlin Brandenburg Airport (IATA: BER, ICAO: EDDB) (German: Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg "Willy Brandt") is a new international airport under construction located 18 km (11 mi) southeast of Berlin, the capital city of Germany. It is scheduled to open on 3rd June 2012.[2] The airport is located on the border between the states of Berlin and Brandenburg and will be named after the former German Chancellor Willy Brandt.
The new airport will replace three airports in Berlin. Tempelhof Airport closed in 2008, Tegel Airport is scheduled to close in 2012. The terminal infrastructure of the existing Berlin Schönefeld Airport will be closed in 2012 while some of the airport's area in Schönefeld will be greatly expanded to the south from its current state. The newly built BER airport will have the current southern runway in common with the existing Schönefeld airport. Due to noise-abatement regulations, flights between midnight and 5:00 a.m. will remain banned. Construction cost are estimated at 2.5 billion euros.
The Berlin Brandenburg Airport will be a hub for Air Berlin, Germania, Easyjet, Germanwings and will serve as a focus city for Lufthansa. The initial capacity of the airport is designed to serve 30-50 million passengers. The two main operators, Air Berlin and Lufthansa, each will handle around 30% of the scheduled commercial flights. Projections estimate the new airport will be the third busiest airport in Germany and thirteenth busiest in Europe by the year 2012.
History
Berlin-Schönefeld airport was opened on 15 October 1934 to accommodate the Henschel aircraft plant. By the end of the Second World War, over 14,000 aircraft had been built. On 22 April 1945, the airport was occupied by Soviet troops, and the aircraft construction facilities were either dismantled or blown up. By late 1947, the airport rail link had been repaired and agricultural machinery was built and repaired on the site. In 1946, the Soviet Air Forces moved from Johannisthal Air Field to Schönefeld, including the civil airline Aeroflot. In 1947, the Soviet Military Administration in Germany approved the construction of a civilian airport at the site. Between 1947 and 1990, Schönefeld airport was renamed on several occasions and finally became the main airport of the GDR (Zentralflughafen).
A stipulation of the Four Power Agreement following World War II was a total ban on German carriers' participation in air transport to Berlin, where access was restricted to US, British, French and Soviet airlines. Since Berlin-Schönefeld airport was located outside of the city boundaries of Berlin, this restriction did not apply. Thus, German aircraft of the East German flag carrier Interflug, could use Schönefeld airport, whilst West German Lufthansa was denied access to Berlin-Tegel or Tempelhof airports.
Following the German reunification in 1990, operating three separate airports became increasingly prohibitive, leading the Berlin City Council to pursue a single airport that would be more efficient and would decrease the amount of aircraft noise from the airport within the city. Therefore, it was decided to erect Berlin Brandenburg Airport at the current site of Schönefeld Airport, which is scheduled for opening in October 2012. The new airport will share only one runway with the existing one. Most of the old airport, including the terminal and apron areas, is intended to undergo a complete urban redevelopment following its closure.
Planning BER
The primary reason for the construction of a new airport is to increase the airport capacity for the Berlin-Brandenburg region as two of the three existing airports are operating well beyond their maximum planned capacity. The resolution for the spatial planning of the airport was made on 13 August 2004.[3] The resolution calls for an expansion of the existing airport Schönefeld into a single airport that will replace the three existing airports in and around Berlin. Indeed the closure of “Tempelhof International Airport” and “Berlin-Tegel International Airport” were set as a prerequisite for opening Berlin-Brandenburg International to traffic.[4][5]
In 2007, a total of 20 million passengers have used the three existing airports. The most congested airport is Tegel, which has a planned capacity for 9.5 million, but handled over 13 million passengers in 2007.[6] The first phase of BER is scheduled to open in late 2011 and will have an initial capacity for up to 30 million passengers.[7] Additional terminals have already been incorporated into the plans and the final capacity after completion of all expansions is given as 50 million passenger per year.
Construction
After a ten-year administrative court struggle, the federal administrative court in Leipzig gave the go-ahead for the project on 16 March 2006 by ruling in favour of Berlin against challenges by residents and municipalities near the future airport.
Construction work began on 5 September 2006. The initial projects were the access roads for the construction site and extension of the future northern runway (the only physical feature BER will share with the existing Schönefeld airport). In 2007, work was started on the railway tunnel that will run underneath the airfield and the completion of Bundesautobahn 113 (A 113) which will connect the new terminals to the motorway network. The construction work for the new terminal is scheduled to begin in 2008 and by 2010 the airport fire brigade will move into newly built facilities. The new airport is scheduled to open for traffic in late October 2011.[8]
In 2004–2005, the inhabitants of the village of Diepensee (population 335) and parts of Selchow (35 residents) were resettled to either Königs Wusterhausen or Großziethen, since the areas were to become part of the future airport.[9][10]
Both the expansion of the airport into BER as well as the quality of the connection to the railway network are subject of public debate. The Bürgerverein Brandenburg-Berlin e.V. is an organization that represents local residents who protest against an expansion of air traffic to and from the south of Berlin. Also, experts for traffic and environmental issues criticize the late completion dates for the fast connection to the central station, which is going to take 30 minutes upon inauguration and will be reduced to 20 minutes once a new line opens in 2015.
Naming
From the opening in 2012 onwards, the Berlin Brandenburg Airport will use the letters BER, the current Metropolitan Area Code for the two Berlin airports, as IATA code.
On 11 December 2009 the social-democratic city government of Berlin announced that Berlin-Brandenburg International Airport would receive the secondary name "Willy Brandt", after the former West German chancellor, mayor of West Berlin, and Nobel Peace Prize laureate.[11][12] Opposition parties in the Berlin city council opposed the decision, the conservative Christian Democratic Union preferring Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg, Albert Einstein, or Marlene Dietrich and the liberal Free Democratic Party preferring liberal politician and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Gustav Stresemann.[11]
City government spokesman Günter Kolodziej announced the airport's primary name would retain the name "Berlin" for sake of travelers from abroad.
Accidents and incidents
- GDR/ SXF era
- On 14 August 1972, an Ilyushin Il-62 aircraft of Interflug (registration DM-SEA) enroute to Burgas Airport crashed shortly after take-off from Schönefeld Airport near Königs Wusterhausen, killing all 156 passenger and crew on board. See Interflug Flight DM-SEA [sic].
- On 22 November 1977, a Tupolev Tu-134 aircraft of Interflug (registration DM-SCM) crashed upon landing at Schönefeld Airport due to a falsely configured autopilot. There were no fatalities among the 74 passenger and crew, but the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.[13]
- On 19 August 1978, LOT Polish Airlines Flight 165, a LOT flight from Gdansk Airport to Schönefeld (carried out on a Tupolev Tu-134, registration SP-LGC),was hijacked and forced to land at Tempelhof Airport in West Berlin, thus having been used as a means for escaping the Eastern Bloc. In these cases, perpetrators were usually not charged by Western authorities.[14]
- On 12 December 1986, an Aeroflot Tupolev Tu-134 (registration CCCP-65795) coming from Minsk Airport crashed in Berlin-Bohnsdorf on its approach towards Schönefeld airport, after having attempted to land on a runway that was temporary blocked for construction work, killing 72 of the 82 passengers and crew on board.[15]
- On 17 July 1989, an Ilyushin Il-62 aircraft of Interflug (registration DDR-SEW) bound for Moscow crashed shortly after take-off into a field near the airport and caught fire. 21 people on board as well as one person on the ground were killed. The East German authorities feared an act of sabotage due to the anniversary of the 17 June 1953, which lead to a delayed aid for injured people. West German rescuers offering help were denied access to the scene. The cause for the accident was later given as a jammed rudder due to a construction failure.[16]
- FRG/ SXF era
- On 28 March 2000, a Boeing 737-300 of Germania (registration D-AGES) operating a charter flight on behalf of LTU from Tenerife South Airport to Berlin-Schönefeld was the subject of an attempted hijack in mid-flight. A passenger forced his way into the cockpit, where he attacked the pilot, leading to a sudden loss of altitude. The perpetrator was restrained and the flight continued to Berlin.[17]
- On 19 June 2010, Douglas DC-3 D-CXXX of Berlin Air Services crashed shortly after take off on a local sightseeing flight.
Infrastructure
During the construction of the new airport, some 3,400,000 tonnes (3,300,000 long tons; 3,700,000 short tons) of concrete will be used and 14 km (8.7 mi) of temporary access roads, nineteen new road bridges as well as a network of approximately 20 km (12 mi) of permanent roads will be built.
With the beginning of construction work in October 2006, an information and exhibition centre called Airportworld BER was opened between the S-Bahn stop Berlin-Schönefeld Flughafen and Schönefeld airport.[18]
Since November 2007 there also is the BER-Infotower, which is situated in the central part of the construction site for the new terminal complex. From the top of the tower it is possible to get an overview of the entire construction site.[19]
Runways
In December 2007 the old northern runway of Schönefeld airport was closed to enable the construction of the final 650 m (2,130 ft) of the A 113. Hence, Schönefeld airport will be operating with a single runway until the opening of BER in 2011.
In late 2007, the southern runway (07R/25L) of Schönefeld airport was extended from 3,000 to 3,600 m (9,800 to 11,800 ft).[20] This runway will serve as the northern runway for BER. An additional runway with a length of 4,000 m (13,000 ft) will be constructed to the south of the new terminal.
Terminal
The terminal buildings will be situated between the two runways, creating a midfield airport. The main pier is 715 meters long, the two piers to the north and the south are each 350 meters long. The terminal will have an initial capacity of up to 30 million passengers, with the option of expanding the capacity through the construction of two additional satellite terminals parallel to the initial building. With all additions, the final capacity will be 50 million passengers.
In the first phase the terminal will have 25 jet bridges as well as 12 "walk-boarding-gates" for rapid passenger movement. Due to the high demand in Low-cost airlines, an additional third building featuring walk-boarding-gates will be added during the initial phase. The new terminal building will also feature gates able to handle the Airbus A380.
The first module of the midfield cargo facilities will have a capacity of 60,000 tonnes (59,000 long tons; 66,000 short tons) of cargo per year. With the completion of all planned expansions this can be expanded to handle up to 600,000 tonnes (590,000 long tons; 660,000 short tons) per year.
Business park
The area surrounding BER is zoned as a commercial district. Plans call for the construction of shopping centres and parking structures as well as industrial, commercial and office spaces.
Situated directly at the terminal complex will be the BER Airport City with an area of 16 ha (40 acres). Marketing of the real estate has begun in autumn 2006 and beginning in 2009 offices, restaurants and retailers will be opening here.
To the north is the BER Business Park Berlin with a planned area of 109 ha (270 acres) for industrial and commercial use.
A further Business Park North was planned as a future use of the area of the old Schönefeld terminal. However, so far there are no definite plans for the future use of this area.
ILA Berlin Air Show
The ILA Berlin Air Show is an international aerospace exhibition and was held biennially on the southern section of Berlin-Schönefeld Airport from 1992 until 2010. In 2012 it will be held the first time at a newly built exhibitioncenter close to the southwestern section of the Berlin Brandenburg Airport.
The ILA is organised jointly by the association representing the German aerospace industry, Bundesverband der Deutschen Luft- und Raumfahrtindustrie (BDLI) e.V., Berlin, and by Messe Berlin GmbH.
The ILA’s main display sections include commercial aviation, aerospace, military aviation and military technology, equipment and engines, and general aviation and helicopters. The trade fair ranks among the world's largest and most important aerospace exhibitions.
Airlines and destinations
Air Berlin laid the foundations for the first maintenance hangar at Berlin Brandenburg Airport on 21 March 2011. Air Berlin, which will use the hangar together with Germania as from June 2012, has thus doubled the maintenance capacity of Air Berlin Technik at its future Berlin site.[21]
In July 2010, it was announced that Air Berlin would be joining the global airline alliance Oneworld.[22] Full membership is planned for the start of 2012.[23] Air Berlin is the second largest airline in Germany and will use the Berlin Brandenburg airport as its main intercontinental hub.
In summer 2011, 88 airlines serve 164 destinations in 54 countries from Berlin airports (TXL/SXF).[24] 28 connections are non-European, 13 destinations are intercontinentally served. Among the longhaul flights are connections to New York City, Bejing, Doha, Bangkok, Phuket, Dubai, Miami, Mombasa, Punta Cana, Varadero und Ulan Bator.

Access
Location
The Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) is located in Schönefeld, a city of 13,000 inhabitants in the German state of Brandenburg. It is situated 18 km (11 mi) southeast of Berlin's city center in northeastern Germany and covers an area of 1.470 hektar.
The airport serves the German capital Berlin with its population of 3.5 million people, and the Berlin/Brandenburg Metropolitan Region with a total population of around 6 million inhabitants.
The airport is part of the Time zone CET (UTC+1) and from the last Sunday in March to last Sunday in October of CEST (UTC+2). Located in the European Plains, the airport's region is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate experiencing hot dry summers and cold snowy winters.
Rail
The terminal will be connected to a 3.1 km (1.9 mi) long railway tunnel running from east to west underneath the apron and the terminal complex. As the nine tunnel sections are the first structures to be built, they can be constructed in the form of conventional excavations.
A railway station with six tracks will be part of the tunnel. With all future rail connections in place it will be reachable in just seventeen minutes from Berlin's city centre. Two tracks will serve as a terminus for the S-Bahn, while the other four tracks will handle InterCity, Intercity-Express and Regional-Express trains. Since the airport is directly south of Berlin, rail traffic will be able to connect it to an area reaching as far as the cities of Dresden, Halle and Leipzig, but also far into Poland and the Czech Republic. It is planned that about half of all passengers will reach BER by rail, with a Regionalbahn connecting it to Berlin Hauptbahnhof (within under 20 minutes by 2015 at the latest[29]), Potsdamer Platz and Berlin Südkreuz non-stop to BER.
The railway station will form the lowest level of the terminal complex and will be situated at a depth of 14.5 m (48 ft) under the surrounding ground level. A total of 33 km (21 mi) of track and 23 Railroad switches will be laid.[30]
Road
The Berlin Brandenburg Airport will be connected with its own exit to the outer freeway ring and to the city freeway.
A 113, the southern Berlin freeway in the direction of Dresden will be relocated and expanded to six lanes. A continuation of A 113 along the Teltow canal will form the connection to the Berlin city freeway A 100. The highway 96a will be expanded to four lanes in the direction of Potsdam.
Four car parks and a car rental centre will be installed by the time BER opens. Around 10,000 parking spaces will be available for arriving and departing passengers. Parking spaces are built as four multi-storey car parks, each with 2,200 spaces.
