Neukölln is a densely built-up locality in the borough of the same name, south-east of the centre between the Landwehrkanal, Hermannplatz and Tempelhofer Feld. Between old apartment neighbourhoods like the Reuterkiez, the going-out streets around Weserstraße and the residential blocks by Körnerpark, many people need a plannable way to reach Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). A pre-booked private transfer picks you up at your Neukölln address and takes you straight to BER – and back to your door after you land.
Airport transfer from Neukölln to BER
For the trip from Neukölln 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 changing trains with your luggage at Hermannstraße and the ring railway, you travel door to door to the terminal. Neukölln is well placed for the A113, which runs almost directly to 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 Neukölln
The transfer works in both directions. After landing you are met at BER and driven straight to your Neukölln address – whether a flat in the Reuterkiez, a place in the Schillerkiez or an address on Karl-Marx-Straße. Enter your flight number when booking so the pickup can follow your actual arrival. After a late return flight in particular, a fixed pickup with a name sign is a plannable alternative to the night-time rail network. See how the BER airport pickup works.
Looking for an Airport Taxi from Neukölln to BER?
Around Hermannplatz and Sonnenallee, 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.

What makes Neukölln distinctive
The northern part around the Reuterkiez and Weserstraße is known for its dense café and nightlife scene, and the Maybachufer on the Landwehrkanal for its Turkish Market. The central hub is Hermannplatz, with Karl-Marx-Straße as the main axis, home to the Rathaus Neukölln and the Neukölln Opera. Historically, the Bohemian village of Rixdorf around Richardplatz with the Comenius Garden stands out. A green highlight is Körnerpark, a sunken, baroque-inspired park with an orangery and gallery. To the west, the Schillerkiez borders directly on Tempelhofer Feld. Further background is in the sources below.

Hotels, dining and local destinations
Accommodation and business addresses are found mainly around Hermannplatz, Karl-Marx-Straße and the Schillerkiez – well suited to transfers in both directions, hotel to BER and BER to hotel. Cafés, bars and restaurants shape Weserstraße, Sonnenallee and the area around Richardplatz; if you combine an evening in the neighbourhood with an onward trip to the airport, simply enter the exact pickup address when booking. Tempelhofer Feld and Körnerpark 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. 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 around Karl-Marx-Straße and the Rathaus Neukölln are typical start and end points.
Neukölln, Kreuzberg or Alt-Treptow – which pickup address?
Neukölln borders Kreuzberg across the Landwehrkanal to the north, Tempelhof to the west and Alt-Treptow to the east. North of the canal begins Kreuzberg; west of Tempelhofer Feld lies Tempelhof. The exact address in the booking form always determines the transfer.
