It was one of the most beautiful airports on this planet. What's more, it could have been as successful as London City. But unfortunately Berlin's left wing mayor Wowereit decided to shut it down.
Not necessarily because THF was losing money, it was a policy decision (airport in the wrong location?), linked to a referendum AFAIK(?). Apparently driven more by ideology than common sense?


Time to put these left wing scroungers out of their misery. They are the real enemy of prosperity in Europe.
And the EU/eurozone isn't?????


Germany is wealthy but as the mayor said, Berlin is poor.
Exactly, forty years as a divided city is the reason.
