BER Gets a Bigger FlixBus Map
FlixBus is expanding its service at Berlin Brandenburg Airport, making BER easier to reach for many people in eastern Germany and Poland. The update brings new direct routes and more frequent buses, giving airport users more ways to plan departures and arrivals. The changes will help larger cities, smaller towns and regions that have had fewer direct airport links.
What is changing for eastern Germany
The FlixBus update includes:
- Up to nine daily Leipzig services each way
- More trips for Schwerin, Jena and Chemnitz
- New BER links for Görlitz and Zittau
- First daily direct buses for Oberwiesenthal and Annaberg-Buchholz
- Summer buses for Warnemünde, Bad Doberan and Kühlungsborn
Polish connections are also being strengthened. Poznań will have up to 15 daily FlixBus services each way, with an average journey time of three hours and 20 minutes. Wrocław will have up to 13 daily services, while Szczecin will have up to 12. At peak times this year, up to 155 FlixBus coaches will stop at BER each day.
The wider bus network makes BER more practical for trips that do not start in Berlin itself. Leipzig, Jena, Chemnitz and the Erzgebirge get better airport access, while Baltic Sea towns gain a seasonal summer link. Polish travellers in Poznań, Wrocław and Szczecin also get more direct ways to reach flights through BER without changing transport.
The update matters most for people who live outside major airport rail corridors. A direct coach to BER can make early flights, luggage-heavy trips and budget journeys easier to manage. With around 90 German and 60 Polish cities linked directly to the airport, BER is becoming less Berlin-only and more of a regional departure point.
