Direct flight Augsburg - Sylt Westerland in just 3 hours
Sylt, the beautiful North Sea island, is a popular destination for those seeking relaxation and nature lovers. However, the island’s idyllic setting also comes at a price: getting there is often a challenge, taking over 10 hours by train from the south of Germany, for example. The limited transport connections by ferry or train make it difficult for travelers to reach the island paradise. But there is a solution that not only makes the journey easier, but also offers breathtaking views of the North Sea and the island of Sylt: Getting there in just 3 hours by plane with ALPEN AIR.
Challenge: Reach the popular tourist island of Sylt faster
Due to the island’s location in the North Sea, getting to Sylt is usually a little more challenging compared to destinations on the mainland. These are the current travel options for getting to Sylt:
1. Car:
Many travelers choose the combination of car and train. You drive your car to the car train loading terminal in Niebüll, have your car transported on the train and then take the train over the Hindenburgdamm to Westerland on Sylt.
2. Train:
If you don’t have a car, you can get there only by train as well, but this takes around three hours from Hamburg-Altona to Westerland on Sylt.
3. Ferry:
Alternatively, you can get to Sylt from Denmark by ferry. The ferry departs from the Danish port of List and takes around 1.5 hours to reach the island.
4. Airplane:
Westerland Airport on Sylt also offers direct flights from various German cities. However, these flights are often seasonal and not all regions have direct connections. ALPEN AIR offers direct flights from Augsburg airport regardless of the season!
