Other alternatives will be pricey too: driving to Berlin is a very long slog from the Channel coast and, having looked into it, flying into Poznan or Prague and getting to and from Berlin by train just isn't worth it timewise and costwise.

Best bite the bullet methinks and, at worst, enjoy a few days in Berlin anyway. (I have really had a look around since before the Wall came down).

Now let's see if any accommodation is available.....
Yes, I've booked some 'cheaper' flights on the basis that I'm happy to go across anyway to get a flavour of it, even if we don't go through tonight. At least the German rail strike appears to have been settled!
