The Hansaviertel is a small locality in Berlin's Mitte borough in the centre of the city, right by the Großer Tiergarten and famous for the modern housing of the Interbau 1957. Between the free-standing buildings in green surroundings, Hansaplatz and the proximity to the Tiergarten, many people need a plannable way to reach Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). A pre-booked private transfer picks you up at your Hansaviertel address and takes you straight to BER – and back to your door after you land.
Airport transfer from Hansaviertel to BER
For the trip from the Hansaviertel 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 and S-Bahn with several changes and your luggage, you travel door to door to the terminal. The Hansaviertel lies centrally by the Tiergarten; the route runs via the city ring and the A113 to BER in the south-east. Depending on traffic, time of day and route the drive typically takes around 40 to 55 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 the Hansaviertel
The transfer works in both directions. After landing you are met at BER and driven straight to your Hansaviertel address – whether a flat on Bachstraße, an address on Hansaplatz or one near Bellevue S-Bahn station. Enter your flight number when booking so the pickup can follow your actual arrival. Instead of carrying suitcases up stairs and through changes, a fixed pickup with a name sign is a plannable alternative. See how the BER airport pickup works.
