Flights to Berlin
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Berlin is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER), 19 km (12 mi) from the centre, whose 13,123-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Berlin Brandenburg Airport | BER | 19 km (12 mi) | 13,123 ft | 157 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 13,123 ft, BER can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 157 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
