Starting July 2, 2026, Air Uniqon will offer flights from BER to Sylt. This means the popular vacation island in northern Germany is once again accessible directly from the capital region in just 60 minutes. The route is part of a triangular flight between Friedrichshafen–BER–Sylt and back. By train, the journey from Berlin Central Station to Sylt, with a transfer in Hamburg, takes between six and seven hours.
The new route is now bookable at https://airuniqon.com and is scheduled twice a week, on Thursdays and Mondays, through October 5, 2026. The flight times are optimized for travelers who want to make the most of a long weekend on the island. The flights will be operated by Bombardier Dash 8-400 aircraft from the German airline Avanti Air, which can accommodate 78 passengers. With this new service, Air Uniqon is responding to the high demand from the Berlin metropolitan area for fast and comfortable flights to the North Sea island.
With the launch of the route to Sylt, an additional day of service is being added to the route between Friedrichshafen and BER. Air Uniqon will operate this route on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.
Air Uniqon is a German aviation startup that operates as a virtual airline without its own Air Operator Certificate (AOC). It specializes in domestic German business travel routes from regional airports. Founded in February 2025, the company began flight operations in January 2026 and flies, among other routes, between Friedrichshafen and BER. As a niche provider in the German aviation market, the company deliberately focuses on select direct point-to-point connections.
