Germany's SundAir scrubs A319 plans ch-aviation PRO exclusive

SundAir (SR, Berlin Schönefeld) is set to add A319-100 capacity to its current fleet of two A320-200s. According to Skyliner Aviation, the German leisure carrier will shortly take delivery of D-ASGK (msn 3853), a near nine-year-old airframe originally destined for Germania (ST, Berlin Schönefeld) but not taken up.

SundAir had planned to operate a trio of A319s under the original version of its business plan. However, it eventually settled on the two A320-200s it currently leases from LATAM Airlines Group for its operational needs.

SundAir currently operates scheduled charter flights from Berlin Tegel and Kassel to each of Las Palmas, Tenerife Sur, and Hurghada.

SundAir (SR, Berlin Schönefeld) has taken delivery of its maiden A320-200 following the arrival of PR-MYO (msn 4974) at Berlin Schönefeld from Abu Dhabi Int'l last week. Skyliner Aviation reports the twinjet, which will be followed by msn 4953 later this quarter, has been added to the German register as D-ASEF.

Though active since early April, the German leisure operator has been plying its services as a virtual carrier chartering in capacity from a variety of third-party carriers.

As such, the delivery of PR-MYO is expected to see SundAir complete its certification and thus begin offering flight services under its own AOC.
