The Sylt Air GmbH is a German airline based in Tinnum and based on the airport Sylt .
history
The aviation company founded in 1963 by Ulrich Schreiber as Friesenflug in Rendsburg was active in the seaside resort flight service as well as with charter and non-stop flights.
When the Polish pilot Kasimir Samp and his Sylt wife Ursula took over flight operations in 1978, the fleet was expanded and a fixed line connection was established between Sylt and Hamburg . In 1998 Friesenflug was sold to Aeroline GmbH, founded in Berlin in 1992 (which had taken over the Sylt flight school from Westerland in 1993) of the entrepreneur Peter Siemiatkowski. In 1994 the company headquarters was relocated to Sylt.
In 2001 flight school and Friesenflug were combined and renamed Sylt Air . Since the legal merger in 2008, the company name has been Sylt Air GmbH . The company operates a handling and administration building at Sylt Airport.
Destinations
In the summer months, Sylt Air flies twice a day from Monday to Friday and once a day from Sylt to Hamburg and back. In addition, Europe-wide charter flights are carried out all year round .
