From the sounds of it Heathrow is unusable these days. Go through Amsterdam if possible.

Amsterdam is the biggest of **** shows right now. I'd go through JFK as it's one less place to clear with passport control.Originally posted by Handyman View Post
Frankfurt would be the ideal choice now, so if you could pull an ORD-FRA-Berlin it could be quite nice and relaxing.Comment

I had heard rumors of ams being a mess hence my caution.
one less Pass control in Europe would be good, so the jfk idea is tempting from that view.
and yes Frankfurt is nice. Heck a few times as a student I took the ICE train to Berlin after flying into Frankfurt but it’s not the most convenientComment

Regardless of where you fly, get a couple of AirTags or the android equivalent and throw one in each checked bag.Comment

These are cool, are they the best of the UWB tracking family?Originally posted by cF[Authentic] View Post

Yup. Go through the dedicated line for cabs and if anyone even looks at you sideways report them. It is a 10k Euro fine for even attempting it.Originally posted by Kepler View Post"It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

On the android side, I was looking into the Tile Mate. They have square and credit card shaped ones. I don't know their effectiveness, but I've recently used Airtags because my work phone is Apple. Otherwise, I'd prefer Tile.Originally posted by Kepler View Post
Also, yes. When I say Schipol is horrible, that's obviously not including airports that are naturally the worst, like CDG.
Seriously, I'd transfer from FRA or MUC as my first choice and I'd pay extra to do it. Likely means you're on united or lufthansa, but so easy to get through. Even Muc to Berlin train doesn't suck although the hour from the airport to hbf on the S8 isn't great.
There's a reason people call the Frankfurt airport to Berlin train ride the worst in Germany, because there's nothing direct.Last edited by cF[Authentic]; 08-29-2022, 03:34 PM.Comment

Are you referring to the transfer in Frankfort after you leave the airport? My first trip was so long ago I can’t recall for sure but I thought it was direct once I got to main station. Still a pain, yes.Originally posted by cF[Authentic] View Post
next trip I did Munich instead and it was much easier. However since then with the new airport opening up, I can’t wait to fly directly into BerlinComment

Worst airport for me was Abu Dhabi although I haven't flown out of there since 2006.Comment
