BER stands for Berlin Brandenburg Airport, an airport code abbreviation.

Berlin's only commercial airport, opened in October 2020 after nine years of delays and huge cost overruns. Located south of the city in Schönefeld, it replaced Tegel and the old Schönefeld airport.

Example: BER finally opened, so the jokes about Berlin's airport that never opens are over.

Usage notes

ICAO code EDDB. Officially Berlin Brandenburg Airport Willy Brandt. A planned 2012 opening was canceled only weeks beforehand because the fire safety system failed inspection, and the project became a national embarrassment. Tegel (TXL), closed in November 2020, was beloved by Berliners for its short walking distances.
