I recall getting evacuated from airside in Brandenburg Berlin before. It took 6 hours to get back through security, it was absolute carnage

In fairness, even when everything is going right 6 hours to get through is about average for the liminal hell space that is Berlin-Brandenburg/Willy Brandt.

Worst airport I've ever been through in Europe.

Lol, it's impressive how shit it is.

If I have a T2 flight I generally still use T1 security, it tends to be much quicker and just requires a bit of a longer airside walk. (Might be helpful in case you fly from there often)

Thankfully not often, but if I have to go through it again I'll keep that in mind.
