Aviaction was a German based charter airline from 1969 to 1973.
History
Aviaction was founded in Hamburg on December 22, 1969, by private investors. In the summer of 1970, the company ordered three Fokker F28-1000 jet aircraft, taking delivery of the first on February 26, 1971. The 65-seat Fokker was considered the ideal aircraft for serving routes not covered by the larger charter airlines Atlantis, Bavaria, Condor, Germanair, and LTU. Aviaction commenced operations on March 28, 1971, with a charter flight from Hamburg to Palma de Mallorca. Aviaction received its two other Fokker F28s in April and July 1971. The Norwegian airline Braathens S.A.F.E. was contracted to maintain the three aircraft.[1]
The financial situation in the summer of 1973 led the company to seek new investors. The Danish charter airline Sterling Airways initially expressed interest in a takeover, particularly to gain a foothold in the German charter market, but ultimately did not proceed with the acquisition. Aviaction ceased operations at the end of the summer season on October 30, 1973, because it could no longer meet its outstanding debts.[1]
