Johan Lundgren, easyJet CEO, commented from Berlin, today:

"Berlin is a key target market for easyJet with more than 50 million passengers having flown to and from Berlin with us since 2004."

“Last year easyJet flew 3.5m international passengers to and from Berlin. That’s more than any other airline including Lufthansa and with our expansion at Tegel this will increase by 60% year on year to 5.6m visitors."

“We are pleased to announce that we will be extending our ‘Worldwide by easyJet’ connections platform to Berlin Tegel from summer 2018 onwards. The addition of Tegel, alongside other key airports in the network, means that 58 million easyJet customers will be able to connect to other airlines’ or to easyJet flights. We have been delighted with the appetite of partner airports and airlines to expand Worldwide across our network, allowing us to access a greater range of passengers flying across Europe.”

Thomas Haagensen, easyJet’s Country Director for Germany, Austria & Switzerland said:

”Summer is finally approaching and we’re pleased to officially launch our Berlin summer 2018 schedule with exciting new routes in line with our ongoing expansion. We will continue to connect Berlin with the most popular leisure destinations offering customers more choice, as they benefit from increased competition and lower fares."

“To celebrate the start of easyJet’s biggest Berlin summer schedule easyJet will join forces with Visit Berlin, the capital‘s official promotional organisation to promote tourism in Europe and Germany to Berlin. The long term partnership deal with the tourism agency will see the airline become one of its main transport partners and will launch with a campaign called #berlinwelcomesyou."

“Additionally with our comprehensive network of key European and domestic cities with convenient, frequent flights, we are growing the number of business passengers who fly with us with 75% of the DAX 30 signed up to corporate travel deals with us and that is set to increase further."

"Our Berlin summer schedule is selling well and the ramp up of the operation is going as planned.”

Michael Müller, Governing Mayor of Berlin:

„ Berlin extremely welcomes the growing engagement by easyJet with the new 2018 summer schedule for the German capital. With the insolvency of airberlin the flight offer to/from Berlin has been reduced tremendously. Therefore, I´m really happy that easyJet is supporting the accessibility of Berlin with its new summer schedule. This is not only to the benefit of the Berliners but also to the great number of visitors into our city.”

Rainer Bretschneider, State Secretary for Brandenburg and Chair of the BER supervisory board:

„The capital region Berlin/Brandenburg is more than ever in need of a good connection in air travel. I´m happy that easyJet is able to play an even bigger role from Berlin-Tegel and thus fosters the attractiveness of the region.”

Engelbert Lütke Daldrup, Chief Executive Officer of Berlin Brandenburg Airport GmbH:

„Today´s launch of the summer schedule underlines easyJet´s great engagement for the metropolitan region of Berlin and to drive forward the strategic partnership with the airport. This communicates a clear and well thought out signal coming from one of the biggest European airlines: Berlin is an attractive market for the aviation industry and will become even more attractive with the BER in the future.”

Burkhard Kieker, CEO of Visit Berlin:

“The engagement by easyJet is great facilitator for the economic and the touristic development of Berlin – which is a great occasion to establish the first strategic partnership between the capital‘s official promotional organisation and an airline. With the hashtag #berlinwelcomesyou we will join forces to promote tourism in Europe to Berlin.”
