International Flights to Berlin

International Flights to Berlin
Berlin is a major metropolitan city that has lots of interesting sites for visitors to see. When planning a trip to Berlin, it's important to decide what method of transport you will take to get there. Although Berlin is serviced by busses and trains, if you're coming from an international destination then the most fast and efficient way to get to Berlin is likely by airplane.

Direct Flights

Tegel Airport, the main airport in Berlin, is the terminus for all long-haul flights arriving in and departing from Berlin, except a few flights going to and from Israel. Continental Airlines flies directly from Newark between three and five times a week, depending on the season. Delta offers direct flights from New York JFK to Berlin twice a week. Qatar Airways runs flights from Doha to Berlin daily. Four times a week, Hainan Airlines flies directly from Beijing to Berlin. Flights to Tel Aviv arrive twice a week on Air Berlin. El Al flies into Schönefeld, Berlin's smaller airport, five days a week from Tel Aviv. Germania recently began to fly directly from both Aleppo and Damascus to Berlin once a week. Direct flights are also available on a daily basis to London, Paris, Amsterdam, Zürich, Frankfurt, and other European cities where travelers can connect to other international flights.

Indirect Flights

Berlin is just a short flight away from other European air hubs. Served by airlines such as British Airways, KLM, Swissair, Lufthansa, Iberia, and Qatar, an indirect flight to Berlin from destinations such as Boston, Sydney, Goa, Hong Kong, Buenos Aires, and Johannesburg is available.

Budget and Seasonal Travel

Berlin is served by many no-frills airlines that fly to other locations in Europe and Northern Africa on a routine basis. EasyJet flies from Schönefeld Airport to locations such as Athens, Dubrovnik, Rome, and Nice several times a week, while Aer Lingus flies from Berlin to Dublin on a daily basis. Affordable flights from Moscow to Berlin are available on Aeroflot daily, and Ryanair flies to Berlin from Edinburgh, Stockholm, and Milan among other cities.

Seasonal Destinations

Air Berlin offers seasonal flights to lots of warm, Mediterranean and African destinations during the summer months. Destinations such as Thessaloniki, Ibiza, Hurghada, Minorca, and Santorini are just a short flight away from Berlin. Similarly, TUIfly offers seasonal flights to Berlin from Fuerteventura, Heraklion, and Rhodes, while Buglarian Air Charter flies seasonally to Burgas and Varna.
