Faster Airport Passage for 1.2M Easter Travelers at BER
Approximately 1.2 million individuals anticipated for Easter travel at BER airport - Approximately 1.2 million travelers anticipated at BER airport during Easter
Get ready for a breezier travel experience this Easter! Airport operators estimate around 1.2 million passengers to pass through Berlin's BER during the holiday season. The airport will be buzzing, particularly over the Easter weekend, with a projected half a million travelers passing through alone from Good Friday to Easter Monday.
Strap on your seatbelts, as new scanners in Terminal 1 promise significantly reduced wait times at security checks. No need to unpack electronic devices or liquids anymore! This change allows for approximately twice as many passengers to be checked per hour compared to the usual, making your way through the airport a smoother ride.
Prepare for a CT scanner revolution! By the Easter holidays, all security lanes in the southern part of the main terminal will be equipped with these marvels. The installation has been underway since late 2022, with the northern terminal area next in line post-Easter. Terminal 2 already reaped the benefits of these timesavers since the beginning of last year, slashing queues in half.
Although you can leave your liquids inside your luggage, quantity restrictions still apply. Stick to no more than 100 milliliters per container and a total of one liter for a frictionless travel experience.

As four-fifths of the projected 1.2 million Easter travelers will pass through Berlin's BER, a capital airport with terminals spread across the Brandenburg region, airport improvements have been implemented in anticipation. Specifically, in Terminal 1, new scanners will slash wait times at security checks during the Easter travel, making it possible for airport operators to process approximately twice the number of passengers per hour. By Easter, CT scanners will revolutionize the security process in the southern section of the main terminal, following a months-long installation process that has transformed the northern terminal area for 2023.
