The new air hub of the German capital can be called a long-term construction: the construction of the airport began in 2006. It was originally planned that the first departures from the Berlin-Brandenburg airport would be completed in 2011, but the opening date for various reasons was postponed four times.

It is assumed that the new harbor will be able to receive up to 27 million passengers annually. By 2020, passenger turnover can increase to 37 million passengers through an additional terminal.

The new airport with commissioning will be the third largest in the country after the hubs of Frankfurt and Munich.
