FAQs for booking flights from Berlin to San Francisco

  • Is it possible for my child to fly alone from Berlin to San Francisco?

    As long as your child is older than five years old, they can be allowed to travel alone. Lufthansa has an amazing service for unaccompanied minors making them a good choice to book with. While you may have to pay an extra fee for the service if they are younger than 12 years, it is well worth it because your child will have a dedicated cabin member looking out for them during the entire trip and guiding them through various security procedures at the airport. In addition, they will also have access to a kids-only lounge in Frankfurt during their layover.

  • Which is the most convenient transfer option from San Francisco International Airport?

    A taxi is arguably the most convenient way to get to downtown San Francisco from SFO Airport. They are available round the clock and take a fairly short time to downtown. They are also available in abundance, with each Terminal at SFO having a taxi zone for passengers. Lastly, they will drop you off at any location in the city even in the suburbs, meaning you don’t have to walk for long distances with your luggage.

  • What are the potential layover options for this route?

    At the moment we don’t have any airlines offering nonstop flights between Berlin and San Francisco, meaning your trip will have at least one layover which could extend your flight duration by over an hour depending on the length of the layover. The most popular layover options on this route include Frankfurt (FRA), Amsterdam (AMS), New York (JFK), Paris (CDG), and London (LHR) among others.

  • Which airline has the best sustainability record?

    Of all the airlines serving this route, Lufthansa and KLM rank highly when comparing sustainability records. Lufthansa is committed to improving its fleet to more fuel-efficient aircraft that could reduce the total emissions by close to 30% for each flight. KLM on the other hand is leading the charge in the usage of part-sustainable aviation fuel for all flights departing from their hub airport in Amsterdam.

  • What is the cheapest flight from Berlin to San Francisco?

    In the last 3 days, the lowest price for a flight from Berlin to San Francisco was £586 for a one-way ticket and £502 for a return.

  • Which airports will I be using when flying from Berlin to San Francisco?

    Berlin airport is called Berlin Brandenburg and the only airport in San Francisco is San Francisco.

The flight attendants were superb and the service was outstanding. Some passengers with small children were very rude and inconsiderate, kids were constantly crying and some were running around the aisle unsupervised.

The flight attendants were superb and the service was outstanding. Some passengers with small children were very rude and inconsiderate, kids were constantly crying and some were running around the aisle unsupervised.

Terrible. There was a rattling noise the whole flight. The internet didn't work after I paid. Boarding is very disorganized.

Horrible flight attendant in back of economy that screamed at me, have already reported to United. Horrible food - for Gluten free, why would you assume the person is vegetarian? I was served some kind of horrible curry bean paste and multiple cold rolls and soggy vegetables with no seasoning... um no!

The crew member put her luggage and boxes behind my seat so I was able to recline while the passenger in front of me did for 8 hours. My knees were forced against the seat for hours :(. Dude sitting next to me hasn't showered in weeks so I almost threw up.

Sorry my last review for prg to fra was for this flight. My prg to fra flight was fine but my second flight back to Washington DC was with a slow awful crew who wouldn’t come in a timely manner to take trash and take trash before serving coffee tea and was shoving other people’s bottles of water on me when we were not traveling together

Lufthansa was amazing. Definitely upgrade your seat if you can swing it - they take very good care of their passengers. Customs in DC is nothing short of a nightmare though. Stood in line waiting to go back through security for 30 minutes, had to RUN through and across two terminals to make my connection and only had 5 minutes to spare. Terrible. Very very poor coordination by the airport staff and CBP.

I was ver pleased with the service all the way through

During the flight there was a medical emergency. We were diverted. Of course I'm thankful they cared for the health of that passenger, but they did a poor job of communicating with the rest of us passengers. In the end we arrived at our destination several hours late, with no direction of how to rebook missed connecting flights. It all worked out in the end. Those of us that needed accommodations were put up in a hotel by Lufthansa until we could make it to our final destination. But it was United Airlines Personnel who really helped us navigate the process.

Our flight to Chicago O'Hare was delayed an hour, causing us to miss our connection to MSP and spend an extra 3 hours at O'Hare so we could board a plane with a damaged door and wait another 45 minutes or so. The crew was great, the food decent, The drinks were great: 2 glasses of a nice South African Shiraz, an ice cold can of Beck's Beer, and Dewar's White Label on the rocks.

A350 has great entertainment. Make sure to watch the plane's external tail and nose camera's on landing and take off. Seats were a little hard for a 10 hour flight. I am gluten intolerant, they had good alternative meals for me on the flight.

my original flight was cancelled the previous day, and i was rescheduled onto this flight, which left much earlier in the morning, impacting my previous evening and requiring me to get up much earlier in the morning to get to the airport online. This practice happens way way way too much, and it seems on every airline, though AA is probably the worst.

Spending 10 hours on a flight with no video or wifi access due to issues per stewardess was not enjoyable nor acceptable. Will follow up directly with the airline as well

I really did not like being ordered to pull my shade down by the attendants. One of them was very rude to me about it, standing there until I closed it like I was a child brusquely reaching across me to close an adjoining one. They claim it was so people who wanted to could sleep. It’s a 10:30am flight not a red eye. Closing your shade or leaving it up for natural light should be a choice. Ruined my flight!

My baggage did not arrived with me. Took 3 days to get it after so may calls and follow up

The crew was very attentive and kept busy serving a variety of treats!

Terrible. Flight was 3 hours delayed and I missed my other flight to my final destination

Offered vegetable curry when it was actually tofu which I don’t care for.

The flight was good the crew excellent…but take off delayed three hours!!!

Both mine and my husband's chairs were broken. Also it took 2 hours to get our bags after our flight which was wild.

perhaps eye contact with the cabin crew, instead of abruptness and an impatience to serve.
