Still worth it to me, especially on sparpreiskarten. I think the last time I took that trip it was closer to 7h (delays due to construction). I love flying through TXL, but the savings hassle is still worth it. 40 minutes Hbf-MUC, 20 minutes (without traffic) TXL-Hbf (longer if BER ever opens), 30 minutes for transiting airport, boarding 30 minutes before the 70 minute flight = at least 3 hours budgeted for flying.
