History

Germania was founded in 1978 in Cologne. In 1992 the head office was relocated to Berlin-Tegel. In the same year, Germania was assigned by the German government the flight connections from the old capital of Germany, Bonn, to the new one, Berlin. This was called "Beamten-Shuttle", which is German and means "functionary shuttle". The airline's main business is the charter business: Germania flies, amongst others, for the German travel concern TUI and the German airline Hapag-Lloyd Express.

In 1998, the airline was pioneer in Germany in using airplanes for advertising. From 2003 to February 2005, Germania was acting in the no-frills airline business with its affiliate "gexx" (Germania Express). In 2005 the German airline Dba bought all the airplanes of gexx.
