Non-stop to Florida in winter
With Norse Atlantic Airways every Friday to Miami


Off to the Sunshine State: NORSE Atlantic Airways now connects BER non-stop with Miami, Florida. The new long-haul connection to the south-east coast of the USA flies once a week in the 2023/2024 winter flight schedule. A Boeing Dreamliner will be used on the route, which seats 338 passengers, 56 of them in the comfortable Premium Economy Class. 

The outward aircraft takes off from BER at 1:15 pm every Friday and lands in Miami at 6:00 pm local time. The flight time to Miami International Airport is ten hours and forty-five minutes. The return journey to BER takes off every Thursday evening at 8 pm from Miami and arrives the following day at 11:15 am. The return flight to BER lasts nine hours and fifteen minutes.

Aletta von Massenbach, Chief Executive Officer of Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg GmbH: “We are delighted that NORSE Atlantic Airways is adding Miami, an exciting long-haul destination, to its BER flight schedule. Florida is a popular holiday destination, especially in winter, and can now be reached non-stop. With Miami and the summer connection to New York’s JFK Airport, NORSE flies to two popular US metropolises on the East Coast.”

Bjorn Tore Larsen, CEO and founder of Norse Atlantic Airways: “Miami has long been a popular destination for soaking up the sun in winter and we are pleased to be able to offer a direct connection from Berlin. Our Norse Atlantic Airways passengers can look forward to a smooth and comfortable travel experience at an affordable price. Passengers can also look forward to our direct summer connection between Berlin and New York City, which will begin again in May.”

Miami, the Magic City

Miami is located in the south-east of the USA, at the southern tip of the state of Florida. It is a favourite sun destination in the cold season thanks to its warm winters. There is plenty to discover in Miami in addition to extensive sandy beaches, superb restaurants and hip beach bars as well as a wide range of sports and shopping opportunities: whether Ocean Drive, Miami Beach, Little Havana, the art deco district or the Everglades National Park – the unique blend of Caribbean atmosphere, glamour, nature and American vibes makes the Magic City an attractive travel destination.
