After the chaotic conditions at the capital's airport BER last weekend, Lufthansa recommends its passengers to be at the airport four hours before departure this week.
"Due to the current situation at BER, we asked our guests to plan more time than usual at the airport," Lufthansa announced on Tuesday.
The "Berliner Morgenpost" had previously reported.
Berlin - Those who follow the recommendation are likely to take longer to travel to Munich than by train.
Their ICE sprinters usually need a little under four hours from the capital to Munich and vice versa.
