The new airport in capital of Germany Berlin will open in June 2012. It's seven months later than previously announced.
Officials said that new security demands for Berlin's new Brandernburg International airport had changed the opening date from October 30 to June 3.
Klaus Wowereit (Berlin Mayor) said: ''It would have been too risky to ignore the new security measures just to open the airport on time.''
The new airport is being built on the compound of Schoenefeld airport, southeast of Berlin. Once it is finished, 25 million passengers will be expected annually.
Tegel airport, which is currently Berlin's busiest and also one of the busiest airports in Europe, will then be closed.
