Check live Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) departures on the board below — flight number, destination, scheduled time, gate and status. Departing flights leave from Terminal 1, with Terminal 2 used by some low-cost airlines, so confirm your terminal before you travel.
Before your flight at BER
Check-in desks typically open about 2–3 hours before departure and close 40–60 minutes before take-off. Arrive at the airport at least 2 hours ahead for short-haul and 3 hours for long-haul flights to allow time for bag drop, security and the walk to your gate. Both terminals have security, shops and food after the control points.
Getting to BER in time
The FEX Airport Express from Berlin Hauptbahnhof takes about 23 minutes to the station beneath Terminal 1. Plan your trip and budget with the BER transfer cost calculator or our Berlin Airport to city centre guide. Driving? Pre-book a space via Berlin Airport parking, and check which building you fly from in the BER terminals guide.
