Schnefeld International AirportSchönefeld International Airport (Flughafen Berlin-Schönefeld) is an international airport located on the south-eastern outskirts of Berlin, Germany, near Brandenburg, Germany. Its IATA airport code is SXF, and its ICAO airport code is EDDB. It is referred to as "The Holiday Airport", as it has mostly international charter flights. Schönefeld was once the major civil airport of East Germany (and only airport of East Berlin). It is further from the city than the other two Berlin airports, Tegel International Airport and Tempelhof International Airport, and therefore is not as much a source of noise pollution. Schönefeld is slated to be transformed into Berlin Brandenburg International Airport. Once the new expansion of the terminal starts construction, Tempelhof airport will close (initially slated for October 30, 2004, but still open for the time being). Six months after the airport is renamed and the new section opened, Tegel airport is to close (effectively sometime in 2007). The airport is served by the Flughafen Berlin-Schönefeld railway station. This station is the terminus of line S9 of the Berlin S-Bahn, and is served by mainline railways as well. The following airlines fly to Schönefeld International Airport: External links
