Berlin was ‘the cradle of German aviation’ and it will soon be home to the country’s newest airport

Aviation has a long history in Berlin and the city is actually the original home of flag carrier Lufthansa, but Berlin’s airport system has been the talking point of the world due to the delayed opening of the new Berlin Brandenburg Airport. While Berlin is not among Lufthansa’s hubs, it remains a major destination for travellers and is now on track to bring the Brandenburg project to fruition in Oct-2020. Patrick Muller, was appointed head of operations at Berlin Brandenburg Airport in Jun-2018 and provides an update on developments, reinforcing that Oct-2020 opening date.
