  • take the Bus TXL and change at Berlin Hauptbahnhof Platform 13
to the S9 to Schönefeld Airport. Will cost you 2,70 Euro (Ticket Berlin ABC), takes 90 minutes. It can be done in 70 minutes with more changes, but if you are not familiar with the Berlin transport system, refrain from doing so. The 109 and the change at Charlottenburg should be the easiest.
Rather than the S9, much better to take the airport express train (technically RE7 or RB14). Same ticket, same stations (Zoo or Hauptbahnhof), it's a direct train to Schoenefeld with a lot less stops so you'll shave off 20 min with NO extra hassle. For the correct departure platform, check the yellow departures lists all over the stations. The train runs every 30 mins, for schedule see http://www.berlin-airport.de/EN/Reis...tionsplan.html. Note: this won't work for the Charlottenburg transfer described above, no stops there.
