What I want to know about is how does it affect the airlines that plan use BER:

Firstly Air Berlin is in a poor financial state (mainly due the poor economy and the delays to BER) and is basically living on support from Eithad, if the delays keep coming, do you think this will tip them over the edge? (or push Eithad towards giving up altogether their involvement with AB)

Secondly, will the proposed Lufthansa/Germanwings hub (sort of...) at BER will still go ahead, or will they give up altogether?

Or maybe even Germanwings could fill the gap left by AB (if it goes out of business) in BER, this making the airport one of "LH" major hubs (along with FRA/MUC/DUS/ZRH)?
