This time EasyJet reports that it served a record number of passengers at Schönefeld - 288,000 - in July (up from 286,000 in June). The former unloved child among the three Berlin airports is getting ever more popular - it may never become the international hub it was once envisaged as, but as one of mainland Europe's main bases for low-cost carriers it's certainly becoming ever more useful.

(And I can remember a time when, if you turned up at Schönefeld in the afternoon, there were so few remaining departures that screens would show the next flights right through until noon the next day).
