New Berlin Airport not opening in June - further delayed to 2014

German media today reports about the delay of the opening of Berlin Brandenburg Airport - due to problems with some fire security systems:

http://www.spiegel.de/reise/aktuell/...-a-831989.html (German language, more details)

The opening was originally planned for November 2011, then postponed to June 3, 2012 - and now delayed for another 2 to 3 months (hopefully even longer...).

That means some more months for the worlds best airport, which is Berlin Tegel (TXL), where you only need 15 minutes by cab from the city center, and where you only have 15 meters from the taxi drop to your individual check in, and than another 15 meters to your individual gate. The longer travellers can use this really user-friendly, fantastic architectural layout, the better!
