The last Lufthansa scheduled flight from Berlin-Tegel will take off on November 7, 2020 at 21:20 p.m. The carrier will operate the connection LH1955 with an Airbus A350-900, as the demand is extremely high according to its own statements. The fire brigade will bid farewell to the long-haul jet with a water fountain.

The last Lufthansa landing in Berlin-Tegel will be flight LH1954 from Munich. The arrival is announced for 20:10 p.m. The crane and the German capital have a checkered history, because the original company was founded in 1926 and had its central airport in Tempelhof. After the Second World War, Berlin was taboo for the newly founded Lufthansa, because only airlines from the victorious powers and some from neutral countries were allowed to fly to Tempelhof, Tegel and Schönefeld.

According to its own information, Lufthansa is represented by six of the Group's airlines in the German capital and has a market share of 30 percent. The crane itself, Austrian Airlines, Swiss, Brussels Airlines, Eurowings and, in the upcoming summer flight schedule, Air Dolomiti all fly to Berlin.

    Good morning Mr. Gruber,

    I have a question about the new BER.

    Tegel remains as you can read was still open for about half a year.
    Should it not be possible to land in Schönefeld due to thick fog, for example, would it be possible to divert the aircraft to Tegel, should there be no fog there, would that be possible?

    I think it would be more than inconvenient to reroute the machines to Hanover, for example.

    Thank you very much.

    With kind regards,
    Cool

      TXL closes forever on weekends. The airport will not remain open for six months. Unfortunately.
      I'll email you the items you want in the afternoon.
