About Green Airlines
Green Airlines was a German domestic airline startup airline that had recently launched in 2022 in the metropolitan region of Upper Rhine Karlsruhe, in Germany, with the cities of Berlin and Hamburg. The airline was particularly targeting business travellers in Germany, connecting metropolitan hubs that otherwise have a long commute by trains or car. The carrier operated out of its hub at Weeze Airport (NRN).
