Berlin is a lot further east than many people realise.
When it was part of East Germany, it was nearer Poland than it was West Germany.

Berlin has an contemporary mix of new and classic structure, vibrant leisure, shopping, and a wide selection of activities and ethnic institutions and if you intend to see it then this hotelbye is the place to start. A number of the points you can see listed here are: the Old Museum, the National Gallery, the Bode Museum, Old National Gallery or, the image of Germany, the Berlin Wall. This wall started his living in 1961 when East Germany made off the western part of the city to base the flood of refugees from east to west. By the time it had been torn down in 1989, the 4 meter large wall and 155 kilometres long, dissected 55 streets, and possessed 293 observation towers and 57 bunkers. Nowadays, only small extends of this graffiti-covered travesty stay, including a 1.4-kilometer expand maintained within the Berlin Wall Memorial, a cooling memory of the animosity that once split Europe.

The flight time is normally 1 hour 50 minutes. Berlin is about 600 miles away. The aircraft flies at 500 mph but it spends time accelerating to that speed, and decellerating. Also, it spends time in the approach pattern for the destination airport.
A London-Paris flight normally takes 40 minutes even though Paris is about 220 miles away.
The other factor is that airlines sometimes pad out their timetables which gives them a margin for error in the event of delays - don't forget, airlines have punctuation statistics to meet.

London to Dusseldorf was about an hour of flight time.
I guess Bristol to Berlin is a bit further, Berlin did used to be in a different country after all.
But yes I agree, wouldn't have thought it'd be an extra hour of flying.

No. That figure two hour figure is about right. Actual time in the air is quite a bit less than that - around an hour and a half, but by the time you have messed about in the take-off queue at this end and landed and taxied to the terminal at the German end and the aircraft doors are actually opened it's as good as two hours, so that is the timetable they fly by. They are always overoptimistic with flying times in order to allow for such things.

yeah sounds about right. you'll overfly the rest of the UK heading east, the netherlands, maybe Belgium (small countries though) and then Germany (which is huge).
