Finding Cheap Flights to Berlin With Low Cost Airlines

Getting to Berlin is really not as expensive as you might think because it is well served by a network of discount airlines offering a whole range of cheap flight. Your starting point will be to look for cheap airline flights coming into Schoenefeld Airport. This airport has worked hard over the past couple of years to attract carriers such as Easy Jet and Ryanair. Easy Jet uses this as a major hub so has flights coming to Berlin from all over. The best connections are to London with a couple of flights a day going each way between Schoenefeld and Gatwick, Luton and Stansted. A rough guide is that each of these airports has two to three flights a day to Berlin with an early morning slot that gets you into Berlin central by about 11:30 a.m. and the last flight gets in at about 10:30 p.m. That leaves quite a few options.
Ryanair has a smaller presence with fewer flights but they still have a couple from London to Berlin each day. If you book well enough in advance and don't travel just before or after the weekend you can find flights for about €20 each way including taxes. If you are really smart and watch out for regular special offers you can drop that by half.
British Airways also has a great schedule between Heathrow and Tegel, but these flights costs quite a bit more. Lufthansa also flies between London City Airport and Tegel. If you can afford the airfare you can't have a more convenient flight as both airports are pretty small so you breeze through security without a backward glance. If you are travelling from further afield it still pays to look around for deals offering cheap air travel. A cousin recently came out from Dallas, Texas and found a great deal that included her hotels and all by browsing the various travel sites.
