The traditional Sylt airline Sylt Air has new owners as of January 1, 2025: The charter airline Padaviation from Paderborn has taken over the company. As Padaviation boss Christiane Wittland confirmed, the name Sylt Air will remain. In future, flights will be operated under the name "Sylt Air operated by PAD Aviation".
With the takeover, Padaviation aims to expand its offering on the German and European market. The existing flight connections to the North Sea island of Sylt will remain, supplemented by additional European destinations that will be served by the Padaviation fleet in the future.
Sylt Air has previously specialized in flights to and from Sylt, especially charter flights and seasonal connections. The expansion of the service promises to provide the island with better connections to European air traffic. The “Sylter Rundschau” was the first to report on the takeover.
