history
In 2004, Marcus Kaiser founded Alpha Exec Flugbetriebs GmbH , which received the AOC in January 2005 and then began flight operations with a Beechcraft King Air B200 .
In the following years flight operations were expanded to include two more aircraft. At the turn of the year 2010/2011 the sale and takeover by Intro Aviation GmbH from Hans Rudolf Wöhrl took place . At the same time, the company was renamed Flynext Luftverkehrs GmbH and the AOC was expanded to include two Airbus A319-100s . The company was subsequently sold to Berlin and renamed Germania Express .
In order to ensure seamless operation of the private charter division with unchanged service, Marcus Kaiser founded Fly Alpha GmbH at the same time as the company was sold, which temporarily operated its business jets under the operating license of Flynext and Germania Express.
After almost two years of approval work, the Federal Aviation Office issued its own operating license for commercial flight operations in December 2012 and the company regained its full independence.
Fly Alpha was taken over by FAI rent-a-jet in 2015 , merged with the parent company and finally closed.
