We will therefore have to wait until 17 March 2013 - if all goes well, but a further postponement seems likely - to discover this building designed to accommodate up to 27 million passengers in its inaugural year and up to 45 million in the longer term.
New airport: surprise setback
Who would have thought it: a construction site has been delayed in Germany. Worse still, it has been delayed twice. Initially scheduled for October 2011, the opening of Berlin Brandenburg Airport, then postponed until 3 June 2012, has finally been put back by more than ten months for safety reasons!
The opening of Berlin Brandenburg Airport will radically change the situation for business travellers. Gone are Tegel and Schönefeld: Berlin Brandenburg Airport (code: BER) will become the one and only airport in the German capital, bringing a little rationality to a rather complex airport offering.
