The Berliner Vorstadt is a district in the east of Potsdam, between the Heiliger See, the Neuer Garten and the Glienicke Bridge. Between villas, parks and the proximity to Berlin, many people need a plannable way to reach Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). A pre-booked private transfer picks you up at your address in the Berliner Vorstadt and takes you straight to BER – and back to your door after you land.
Airport transfer from Berliner Vorstadt to BER
For the trip from the Berliner Vorstadt to BER, enter your pickup address, date and time in the booking form and see the available vehicle classes with the total price before you book. Instead of travelling by tram and regional train with several changes and your luggage, you travel door to door to the terminal. The district lies at the eastern edge of Potsdam towards Berlin; the route runs via the A115 and the Berlin ring (A10) as well as the A113 to BER. Depending on traffic, time of day and route the drive typically takes around 45 to 60 minutes. This is guidance only – the real journey time depends on traffic on the day. See the full overview on Berlin airport transfer.
From BER back to Berliner Vorstadt
The transfer works in both directions. After landing you are met at BER and driven straight to your address in the Berliner Vorstadt – whether a villa by the Heiliger See, an address on Berliner Straße or one near the Neuer Garten. Enter your flight number when booking so the pickup can follow your actual arrival. With luggage in particular, a fixed pickup with a name sign is a plannable alternative to changing trains several times. See how the BER airport pickup works.

Hotels, dining and local destinations
Accommodation and business addresses are found mainly on Berliner Straße and around the Neuer Garten – well suited to transfers in both directions, hotel to BER and BER to hotel. Cafés and local amenities sit on the main axis and by the lakeshore; if you combine a walk in the Neuer Garten with a trip to the airport, simply enter the exact pickup address when booking. The park and the Glienicke Bridge also make the district a destination in its own right.
Families, groups and business travellers
Travelling as a group, everyone stays together in one vehicle, from a business car to a minibus for larger parties. On the way from Potsdam to the airport, one vehicle for everyone pays off. The booking system shows which vehicle class is available for your passenger count and luggage; for larger groups see the Berlin airport minibus for groups. For business travellers, the addresses on Berliner Straße are typical start and end points.

The Berliner Vorstadt borders the Potsdam city centre to the west, the Nauener Vorstadt to the north and Babelsberg across the Havel. West begins the centre; north lies the Nauener Vorstadt. The exact address in the booking form always determines the transfer.
