Hi Eddi, welcome you and your wife to Berlin.
From the airport Schönefeld you can take the airportbus x7,171 or if in the night n7 to alt-
Rudow (U7, blue line) or the S- Bahn to Ostkreuz (S9). Please be aware that Schönefeld is
situated in zone C, so you need a different and more expensive ticket,
than being "in Berlin". You can find a plan of public transport, also in English on
bvg.de  . There you can also find more information about the welcome card..and find
out if that is the right card for you. I would suggest ABC for you, if you later also fly from
Schönefeld, as there is only a 2 EUR difference. So you could go to
Potsdam without paying extra. A normal trip in Berlin by bus and /or subway / s-bahn
costs 2,4 EUR. You can use the ticket for 2 hours, but only in one direction!
So you can count, what the best ticket would be. If you have any questions, it would be my
plesure to help you.

Have a nice trip to Berlin.
