New Berlin Airport Governing Board Convenes Amid Delays

BERLIN, GERMANY - JANUARY 16: A sign indicating the name of the new Berlin airport is seen in the press center after a meeting of the Governing Board of the new Willy Brandt Berlin Brandenburg International Airport in which airport head Rainer Schwarz was dismissed on January 16, 2012 in Schoenefeld, Germany. The new airport, which was due to open in 2011 and through successive delays will not open until 2014 at the earliest, has been plagued by construction complications and skyrocketing costs. Opposition leaders are calling for the resignation of Berlin Mayor Klaus Wowereit, who until recently chaired the Governing Board, though he has thus far refused to give up his post as mayor.
