Buch is a locality in Berlin's Pankow borough in the far north-east of the city, shaped by its large hospital and science campus, the palace park and the surrounding forests. Between the Helios hospital, the Campus Buch and the residential settlements, many people need a plannable way to reach Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). A pre-booked private transfer picks you up at your Buch address and takes you straight to BER – and back to your door after you land.
Airport transfer from Buch to BER
For the trip from Buch 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 on the S-Bahn with several changes and your luggage, you travel door to door to the terminal. Buch lies in the far north-east; the route runs via the eastern city ring and the A113 to BER in the south-east. Depending on traffic, time of day and route the drive typically takes around 50 to 65 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 Buch
The transfer works in both directions. After landing you are met at BER and driven straight to your Buch address – whether a hospital address, a flat in the settlement or a house near the palace park. Enter your flight number when booking so the pickup can follow your actual arrival. Because of the long ride from the north-east 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.
Looking for an Airport Taxi from Buch to BER?
Around the S-Bahn station and the hospital, many travellers search for a taxi to the airport. As an alternative to hailing a metered taxi on the street, you can pre-book a private transfer to or from BER: the price for your route and vehicle class is shown before you confirm, and the driver waits at the agreed address or at the airport. The transport is carried out by external, licensed transfer providers. Read more about booking an airport taxi to BER in advance.

Hotels, dining and local destinations
Accommodation as well as hospital and business addresses are found mainly around the campus and the S-Bahn station – well suited to transfers in both directions, hotel or hospital to BER and back. Cafés and local amenities sit by the village centre and the campus; if you combine a walk in the palace park with a trip to the airport, simply enter the exact pickup address when booking. The palace park and forests also make the locality 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 long ride from the north-east in particular, 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 and hospital visits, the addresses on the campus are typical start and end points.
Buch, Karow or Französisch Buchholz – which pickup address?
Buch borders Karow to the south, Französisch Buchholz to the south-west and Blankenburg to the south-east. South begins Karow; south-west lies Französisch Buchholz. The exact address in the booking form always determines the transfer.
