Aletta von Massenbach, CEO of Berlin Brandenburg International Airport (BER), will inaugurate the International Airport Summit with a compelling keynote address. In her speech, she will provide an in-depth look at the strategic developments underway at BER, highlighting initiatives aimed at elevating the passenger experience and positioning the airport for long-term growth against regulatory headwinds.
Despite most European airports surpassing pre-pandemic levels, Germany’s recovery has lagged, standing by 86%. The slow rebound has been induced by a surge in state-imposed costs, particularly air traffic taxes, aviation security fees and air traffic control charges – factors that significantly diminish Germany’s competitiveness against other European countries.
In her keynote, Aletta will candidly explore these market challenges, outlining how BER is navigating headwinds with a focus on operational excellence, passenger service and digital innovation. She will share insights into BER’s strategies for balancing financial pressures with sustainability commitments and discuss the broader implications for the future of German aviation.
Join us for this insightful keynote to understand how one of Germany’s key airports is adapting to a rapidly changing landscape and what it means for the future of air travel in Europe.
