Looks as though Poland might be showing the Germans how to open an airport (Berlin Brandenburg anyone?)......
Not really, WMI was supposed to be open before the Euros if not before.

WMI is a very simple operation - a low cost shed at an old military base.

BER is effectively three airports (TXL, THF & SXF) rolled into one, immense local politics and huge cost long before the opening problems.

It will have two parallel runways with a midfield terminal and a station complex right underneath.

Although I'd love to visit the city of Warsaw, I have no interest in visiting WMI unless I fly with an airline that goes there. I love the city of Berlin, and relish the opportunity to go again through the new BER, once it is finally up and running.
