  I thought Tegel was notoriously the very worst airport in the world? The facilities were atrocious. A security setup like cattle pens. It was like a bad bus stop - grim and dark and raw concrete. It didn’t even particularly have good routes did it?

    I used to fly between London and Berlin a lot, and absolutely loved Tegel then. LCY-TXL was a great route. From my apartment to sitting on the plane at LCY took 20 min; from my desk in Berlin to sitting on the plane at TXL took 40 min. Probably the best two airport experiences I've ever had.

      LCY seems to have gone to the dogs recently too. I like the redevelopment they’ve done on airside, but it’s all so … full and unpleasant now. Food options seem to have gone downhill now that the ok airside restaurant only does burgers. I’ve had delightful meals there in the past, making delays more than bearable.

    The facilities were atrocious looking, grim and raw concrete on the outside, nonetheless it was very easy to fly through TXL and get to the city. I always preferred going to TXL from ARN, felt like I was getting a flying bus to my destination, very close to the center so it was a matter of disembarking and getting to the center in 30 minutes or less. Flying to Schönefeld had the same atrocious facilities and another hour of a train ride to the city...
