Berlin Brandenburg Airport said it will start a savings round and shift investments after Ryanair announced cuts, with airport chief Aletta von Massenbach saying the airport will review all personnel and material costs while continuing to invest to reduce costs and explore new revenue opportunities.
Ryanair will remove 700,000 seats from its winter flight plan in Germany, relocate all seven aircraft based at Berlin to cheaper airports but still serve the capital, and its traffic in Berlin is expected to halve to about 2.5 million passengers in 2027; passenger numbers at BER are projected at about 25.7 million this year and 25.2 million in 2027, both below the originally planned 26.5 million.
