Cheap flights from Rio De Janeiro to Berlin

Booking three or four months ahead usually gives you better options for this route, especially when you want a specific connection time through your chosen hub. The cheapest month on this route is November, which falls between the European holiday rush and the spring break period. Summer travel from Rio tends to be heavier with families heading north, while December around the holidays sees fewer people taking this particular journey.

Most carriers on this route include checked baggage in their standard fare, though budget options like GOL and Azul often charge extra for bags that full-service airlines provide. LATAM Airlines and Latam Airlines Brasil operate through São Paulo as a hub before passengers continue toward Berlin via European connections. Iberia and TAP Portugal offer alternatives through Madrid and Lisbon respectively, while British Airways and Air Canada connect through London or Toronto.

Arriving late at BrBrandenburg can change your plans significantly, since public transport runs less frequently during evening hours compared to daytime service. The airport sits about twenty kilometers from Berlin's centre, reachable by train lines that take roughly forty minutes under normal conditions. You might need a taxi or rideshare if you land after midnight, when most scheduled services have finished for the night.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Choose which Rio De Janeiro airport your ticket departs from since Santos Dumon and Rio De Janeiro International serve different connection patterns.
• Confirm whether your airline includes checked baggage in the base fare before adding extras at checkout.
• Verify that connecting flights stay on the same reservation rather than requiring separate bookings for each leg.
• Check visa requirements for Germany well before your travel date, especially if you hold a non-European passport.
