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 £590 for a one-way ticket and £493 for a return.

We liked the direct flight from Frankfurt to Orlando, however, it was a little confusing as I thought I was traveling with Lufthansa from Izmir- Frankfurt-Orlando. We were not able to check in online twenty-four hours before the flight from Izmir. One lady in our group wanted to check two suitcases in Izmir, but was not allowed to do so. She was allowed to take the extra bag into the cablin. Others in our group were able to check two bags. In Frankfurt several in our group were given stand-by boarding tickets, which worried them. Everyone eventually was allowed to board, but it caused them to worry. I didn't have any of those problem.

Boarding, comfort, food/drinks, entertainment and most of all an extremely courteous and friendly group of flight attendants made my 12 hour flight an absolute joy!

Everything great. Just didn’t get my checked bag. Never left Berlin

The bad part was 2 hour delay and we were seating in the airplane it was getting hot and uncomfortable But after they fixed the problem everything went so smooth Crew were amazing very nice polite and caring

Touchscreens do not work. WiFi did not work. Food is possibly the worst on any European airline. Drinks came by only four times on a cross-Atlantic. The plane was two hours late because—it was announced—Lufthansa didn't have enough large aircraft in their fleet to accommodate an on-time flight.

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

Poor technical details on this plane. 1) There was no WiFi on an 8 hour long-haul flight. So no work could be done. That's below the standard expected for airlines these days. 2) The power outlet at my seat was busted and not working. 3) The headphone jack was loose and I had to keep adjusting my headphones to get good reception, or when it slipped out. - The flight was delayed to due mechanics. Sometimes this can't be avoided, I understand, and it's a big inconvenience to arrive that much later when traveling across time zones (then arriving at 4am from the prior time zone). - Also unique to this flight, the northern lights were visible on the right side of the aircraft, but I only found out after we landed (b/c again no wifi). I understand there are considerations about people being out of their seats to look, but I feel extremely disappointed and resentful that I wasn't told so that I could have a chance to look at this probably once-in-a-lifetime cosmic event from a view in the sky. - Flight crew was otherwise friendly and helpful.

I would have preferred something lighter for the second meal. Maybe a small sandwich .

They cancelled our flight the morning of departure at 4:30am.

Coach seats are too tight. Seem designed for small people. Food different but OK. Staff helpful.

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
