Berlin becomes a Sunflower Airport

Berlin Airport is officially the first German airport to introduce the Sunflower lanyard. It is an internationally recognised symbol for hidden disabilities, launched in 2016 at London Gatwick Airport.

It has been designed to give people with hidden disabilities the ability to make the invisible visible, and make airport comfort and travel easier.

People with hidden disabilities should be able to use all travel options at Berlin Airport without any restriction. It gives the wearer the opportunity to clearly signal that they have a hidden disability and may need additional assistance, as well as time or just a little patience during their stay at the airport.

The Sunflower lanyard is available from all passenger information desks in Terminals 1 and 2 and from Mobility Service. Passengers and interested parties can simply ask for the Sunflower lanyard there. The employees will provide it free of charge and without further questions or proof.
