OVG rejects lawsuits against BER approach routes

The municipality of Blankenfelde-Mahlow and a local resident have complained about night flight routes at Berlin-Brandenburg Airport. The competent higher administrative court did not grant this.

The Higher Administrative Court of Berlin-Brandenburg takes the view that there are no alternative approach routes that would be significantly more favorable for the plaintiffs in terms of noise distribution. Specifically, it was about western operations on the north runway. An ordinary appeal to the Federal Administrative Court was not permitted.
