Gropiusstadt is a locality in Berlin's Neukölln borough in the south of the city, shaped by the large housing estate designed to plans by Walter Gropius around Fritz-Erler-Allee and the Gropius Passagen. Between high-rise rows, green spaces and the shopping centre, many people need a plannable way to reach Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). A pre-booked private transfer picks you up at your Gropiusstadt address and takes you straight to BER – and back to your door after you land.
Airport transfer from Gropiusstadt to BER
For the trip from Gropiusstadt 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 U-Bahn with several changes and your luggage, you travel door to door to the terminal. Gropiusstadt lies in southern Neukölln, comparatively close to the airport; the route runs via the A113 straight towards BER. Depending on traffic, time of day and route the drive typically takes around 25 to 40 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 Gropiusstadt
The transfer works in both directions. After landing you are met at BER and driven straight to your Gropiusstadt address – whether a flat on Fritz-Erler-Allee, an address on Lipschitzallee or one near the Gropius Passagen. Enter your flight number when booking so the pickup can follow your actual arrival. Because the rail link is short but change-heavy, a fixed pickup with a name sign is a plannable alternative.

The green spaces also make the locality a destination for families.
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. Precisely because the way to BER is short, the direct ride pays off for everyone. 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.
