A new, operations-led partnership announced between flyvbird, the German AI-driven aviation start-up reshaping regional air travel, and flYellow, a seasoned air operator based in Passau, Germany. This collaboration will provide the foundation for the launch of flyvbird’s flexible, on-demand flight services from Germany - on schedule to start from next month, with Cessna Grand Caravan aircraft operating on flYellow’s AOC.

According to  flyvbird CEO Tomislav Lang, initial routes will connect regional airports including Friedrichshafen, Mönchengladbach, Münster/Osnabrück,Hamburg, Frankfurt, Hof-Plauen Airport and Berlin Strausberg. Passengers can already submit booking requests via flyvbird’s platform, with first flights scheduled for September 2025.The alliance marries the expertise of flyvbird with its digital, agile platform and flYellow’s operational expertise as flying partner. Its Cessna Caravan (D-FEIC), to be operated exclusively for flyvbird, will serve both high-end charter flights and dynamic on-demand services with individual seat bookings.

Tomislav Lang, CEO of flyvbird commented: “With flYellow, we have found a strong operational partner who shares our mission: to redefine regional flying—more flexible, sustainable, and truly customer-centric.” 

Harald Eichberger, Managing Director of flYellow stated: “Our cooperation with flyvbird demonstrates how combining innovation with experience can drive the future of aviation.”

The partnership marks a major milestone in the evolution of regional air mobility — combining digital intelligence, operational excellence, and sustainability. Plans for expansion, including additional aircraft and network routes, are already underway.
