Railway access to Berlin Airport (BER) will undergo a closure of 2 months, commencing from September.
In the coming months, travel plans for passengers heading to BER Airport will be impacted due to the shutdown of S-Bahn access. The closure is a necessary step for essential maintenance and repairs, as announced by Deutsche Bahn.
The shutdown, scheduled to last for two months, will affect the S46, S8, and S85 lines, causing a disruption in S-Bahn services. Passengers planning travel to BER Airport in September and October should be mindful of this development and consider alternative transportation options.
During the shutdown, replacement bus services will be available, and regional trains from Ostbahnhof and Hauptbahnhof will continue to run to BER Airport. The FEX, RE8, and RB23 regional trains can also be used as an alternative to the S-Bahn.
It is recommended that travelers check the official Berliner S-Bahn and BER Airport websites or local transport authorities for updated shuttle bus schedules and recommended alternative routes. For the most reliable travel planning, it may be beneficial to consider regional and long-distance train options to Berlin from other points if applicable.
Additionally, it is advisable to use journey planner tools and monitor announcements relating to Berlin transport construction updates throughout September and October 2025. It's essential to verify current timetables and available services before traveling, as railEurope and related railway information indicate there will be schedule changes on various routes around September 2025.
Construction work on the S45 and S9 lines is scheduled to be completed in approximately 3 months. The work includes repairs to tracks, bridges, and an electronic signal box in Schöneweide.
Travelers should expect some inconvenience during this period, but with careful planning and awareness of the available alternatives, it is possible to navigate the temporary shutdown with minimal disruption to their travel plans.
