BER Airport Offers New Intercontinental Flight Destination
Up to now, passengers had the choice between 23 routes to airports on other continents. Now there are 24. Which is the new one?
BER Airport in Schönefeld, located in Brandenburg province, has expanded its intercontinental flight options to 24, thanks to a new agreement with Emirates for daily long-haul flights to Dubai. This marks a significant growth from the previous 23 routes available. Berlin's Governing Mayor, Kai Wegner, announced the development during a meeting with the UAE President, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
Wegner emphasized that this partnership will strengthen the economic connection between Berlin and Dubai, boosting international connectivity for the capital's airport. He also highlighted the positive impact on Eastern Germany's business environment, stating that the increased flight options are a strong signal for the region's growth.
The UAE President expressed similar enthusiasm, noting that Berlin's familiar culture and the city's existing ties to the UAE make it a convenient destination for visitors. He also invited further collaboration between the cities in various fields such as technology, innovation, transport, culture, and urban development.
