It might happen- but it still wont have an airport.
- Mashimo 8y agoNice overview of the cost involved of trying to build the Berlin Airport: https://www.flughafen-berlin-kosten.de/ https://www.flughafen-berlin-kosten.de/
- dx034 8y agoIt'll probably still have two airports.. Luckily the flight to Frankfurt is short and from there you can connect to most places in the world. But wouldn't be surprised if Tegel gets a few more direct connection to the US west coast.
- hknd 8y agoMunich is still the city with the most IT jobs and companies - I don't know if Berlin will catch up. Berlin has this start-up flare image, but based on numbers that's just not true.
- laingc 8y agoYep, and compared to Munich, the startups I've seen in Berlin are extremely unimpressive.
- sveme 8y agoI agree on Munich - and most of its startups are in tough topics involving hardware such as robotics, IoT etc. Still believe that engineering B2B is a better fit for a startup company in Germany than the often B2C model in silicon valley.
- iuguy 8y agoBerlin has two airports, Tegel and Schoenefeld.
- rsynnott 8y agoIt has two airports. They're just kind of small and weird (or at least Tegel is; haven't been to the other one).
