Flight operations 2025 - adjustment of IFR operating times

Dear customers,

Due to the current understaffing of tower personnel, we have had to make adjustments to our flight operations in order to maintain air traffic control. This mainly affects IFR flight operations on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays since February 2025. On these days, operations will only be ensured under VFR conditions with an air traffic controller. Air traffic control and therefore full IFR operations are therefore not possible.

On weekends and public holidays, we have therefore adjusted our operations during our normal opening hours as follows:
