At BER Airport
Permanent parker accumulates 200,000 euros in fees – car towed

In Berlin, a car makes headlines, for which tens of thousands of euros are said to have run out of parking fees. The “Berliner Zeitung” reported in the middle of this week for over a year now. The fee a day: 552 euros. Because 23 euros are due on the short -term parking lot. Up to ten minutes are free of charge.
Apcoa Deutschland GmbH, based in Stuttgart, is the operator of the parking lot. A company spokesman told the German Press Agency that the car had been at the airport for a long time. However, he cannot confirm that it was one year. APCOA is in close exchange with the airport as the owner of the parking garage and the responsible authorities.

Now it seems to have been possible: the vehicle was driven away from a towing car on Tuesday morning. “In consultation between APCOA and the FBB (airport company, editor’s note), the vehicle was brought to another parking space,” said a spokesman for the APCOA parking lot operator to the dpa.
