From September 2025: FlyVBird flies from Hof!
On 17 September 2024, the airport, together with the Hochfranken economic region, presented the business concept of "FlyV Bird". At the event, airline founder Tomislav Lang announced his intention to offer "on-demand" flights from Hof from May 2025.
Things will finally get underway from September 2025: in addition to the fixed routes Friedrichshafen - Mönchengladbach and Mönchengladbach - Berlin-Strausberg, FlyVBird will also fly from Hof with Cessna C208 Caravan aircraft (9 seats)!
Enquiries for "on-demand flights" with the arrival/departure destination Hof (HOQ) can now be made via the airline's website from September - throughout Germany!
However, FlyV requires a slightly longer lead time for flight requests than regular airlines, as there is no fixed flight schedule. Flight requests at short notice are therefore not feasible. The lead time for the enquiry should be at least one week and the flight duration should be approx. 1 hour. If there are several requests in the same period or to the same destination, FlyV will certainly operate the flight and, in the case of repeated requests, even operate the flight as a fixed route. Prices will be in the business segment and every confirmed flight will be guaranteed by FlyV. Private individuals can also book, although the initial focus will be on business travellers from the Hof region and the Vogtland catchment area.
Hof-Plauen Airport will take care of passenger check-in at the terminal, the necessary checks and handling on the ground.
"We are looking forward to opening a new chapter in aviation together with FlyV and making the first official commercial air taxi for on-demand flights a reality!" says a delighted Ralf Kaußler, Managing Director of Hof-Plauen Airport.
