Operations at Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) remained suspended early on Friday, with no aircraft able to depart because of black ice and freezing rain, an airport spokeswoman said.
“Because of black ice and ongoing freezing rain, no take-offs or landings are currently possible at BER,” the spokeswoman said.

She said airport ground crews had treated runways and other operational areas with de-icing agents throughout the night, but the measures did not allow flights to resume.
Surfaces remained unsafe for aircraft movements, she said.
It was not clear when flight operations would restart. Take-offs and landings had already been suspended on Thursday evening due to black ice.
