New German leisure carrier set for April launch

New German airline Azur Air is preparing to start operations in April. The carrier plans to operate leisure flights on behalf of Dutch-Turkish tour operator Anex Tourism Group. Azur Air is stationing 3 leased 330-seat Boeing 767-300ERs in Düsseldorf, where a maintenance centre is also being established. In addition to Düsseldorf, the carrier also plans to launch operations from Berlin and Munich in April. Azur Air will operate leisure routes that include Mediterranean destinations in Europe and the Canary Islands in Spain. Long-haul flights are also planned at a later date. The company said it has entered the (German) commercial register and is undergoing licensing by the German Aviation Federal Office (LBA Luftfahrt Bundesamt). <br/>
