The airlift to Berlin, known as the Berlin Airlift, primarily involved flights from West Germany, particularly from airports in Frankfurt, Rhein-Main, and Wiesbaden, to various sectors of West Berlin. This operation was initiated in response to the Soviet blockade of West Berlin in June 1948, supplying food, fuel, and other essential goods to the city's residents. The airlift lasted until September 1949, successfully maintaining the city's access to necessary supplies despite the blockade.
