Berlin transportation from (TXL )Tegel to Hauptbahnhof

I am flying into TXL this week and need to take a train to Leipzig. What is the easiest/fastest way to get to the main station from Tegel airport?

DB timetable

From: TXL

To: Berlin Hbf

To: Leipzig

Bus from Tegel to Hbf or any other station in Berlin is EUR 2,10.

Take bus %26quot;TXL%26quot; straight from the airport to Hauptbahnhof (about 20 mins), runs every 10 mins.

|||

Fastest way wd be taxi; prob. 15� or so.

TXL bus usually takes more than 20 mins between station and airport in my experience. It%26#39;s an ordinary bus not just for those travelling to/from airport so picks up and drops off all along the route.

Bus %26quot;TXL%26quot; is an eXpress bus which does not stop that often. And with the bus you can buy a ticket from the ticket machines in advance while with the taxi you have to pay afterwards. And this alone will eat up most of the time a taxi can make good on this route compared to the TXL bus.
