Heringsdorf Airport, located on the Baltic Sea island of Usedom, has announced its 2025 summer flight schedule. As in previous years, those responsible are focusing on a balanced offering that includes both tried-and-tested routes and new connections. Particularly noteworthy is the addition of the new route to Friedrichshafen, which connects the island of Usedom directly with the Lake Constance region. The summer flight schedule also includes the continuation of several established scheduled flights that offer weekly connections to Zurich, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Kassel and Luxembourg. All scheduled flights will operate on Saturdays as usual.
With the introduction of the new route to Friedrichshafen in southern Germany, Heringsdorf Airport is focusing on strengthening connections to the Lake Constance region. Friedrichshafen is not only an economically important city, but also a popular tourist destination that offers good connections to the Baltic Sea island of Usedom. The flights to Friedrichshafen are a response to the increasing demand from both business travelers and vacationers who want to travel from Usedom to the southern German region.
The route network is also complemented by the existing connections to Zurich, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Kassel and Luxembourg. These flights continue to be very popular as they offer a fast and direct connection to important economic centers and international hubs. The flight connection to Zurich in particular represents an attractive option for business travelers who have access to global connections with Zurich International Airport.
Weekly flights
All scheduled flights from Heringsdorf Airport will continue to operate exclusively on Saturdays. This arrangement will remain in place for the upcoming summer flight schedule. Saturday is a preferred day for many travelers to start their vacation or business trip. The airlines that serve Heringsdorf Airport have concentrated their flights on this day in order to offer the greatest possible comfort and flexibility for passengers. The weekly flight offer allows travelers to plan their travel plans around the weekend, which is an ideal solution for many.
For holidaymakers on Usedom, the regular flight connection to an established network of cities is a great advantage. The island is known for its high quality of life and scenic beauty, making it a popular destination for tourists from all over Germany and beyond. Especially in summer, when tourist demand is at its highest, the high frequency of connections will be a practical solution to accommodate the increasing number of holidaymakers.
impact on the regional economy
The expansion and strengthening of the flight schedule at Heringsdorf Airport also has a positive impact on the regional economy. Improved accessibility through direct flight connections can lead to an increase in tourism numbers, which in turn supports local businesses and the infrastructure on Usedom. Especially in high season, the increased number of travelers is an important factor for hotels, restaurants and other service providers on the island.
In addition, the connections to Frankfurt and Zurich will create closer links to international business travel markets. This could open up new opportunities for companies in the Usedom region to communicate and cooperate with partners and customers worldwide. Good connections to international airports not only strengthen tourism, but also regional economic structures.
Heringsdorf Airport as a hub for the Baltic Sea region
Heringsdorf Airport has established itself as an important regional airport in eastern Germany in recent years. It not only offers a convenient entry point for travelers heading to the island of Usedom, but also a connection to a network of German and international cities. The decision to continue the 2025 summer flight schedule with a new connection to Friedrichshafen as well as the existing flights to Frankfurt, Zurich and other cities underlines the airport's importance as a "hub" for the Baltic Sea region.
By expanding its flight offering, Heringsdorf Airport is ensuring that it meets the needs of business travellers, holidaymakers and international passengers. In the coming years, the airport is expected to grow even further, particularly in view of the developing tourist travel market and the increasing demand for air connections in the Baltic region.
