Air traffic: Emirates will be allowed to also fly to BER airport in the future
There are only a few international long-haul flights at BER. This is likely to change in the foreseeable future. The Federal government is allowing the airline Emirates to land at another German airport in the future.
Emirates has been allowed to add a fifth German destination to its route network, with the German government approving the airline's request to fly to Berlin-Brandenburg Airport. The airline will be limited to seven flights per week and will only be able to operate between Germany and the UAE. The move has been welcomed by the governments of Berlin and Brandenburg, who see it as an opportunity to strengthen the region's international connections.
Emirates currently serves four German airports: Frankfurt, Munich, Düsseldorf, and Hamburg. The airline's new route to Berlin-Brandenburg will connect to its hub in Dubai, offering onward flights to other destinations.
