A departure point with a maritime character

Kiel-Holtenau sits close to the city, the fjord and the Kiel Canal. From the air, the transitions between harbour, water, farmland and coastline become especially clear.

That combination makes the location attractive both to people from the region and to visitors who want to experience Schleswig-Holstein from an unfamiliar perspective.

What you may discover from the air

The actual route depends on the offer, weather, airspace and the pilot’s decision. Possible views range from the Kiel Fjord and sections of coastline to lakes and inland landscapes.

On a sightseeing flight, one single destination is not the whole point. The changing perspectives throughout the route create the experience.

Sightseeing flight or excursion?

If you mainly want to see Kiel and the coast from above, a sightseeing flight returning to the departure airfield is an obvious choice. An excursion instead combines the flight with another destination and time on the ground.

The Aviatefinder airfield page shows only offers currently listed from Kiel-Holtenau, making it easy to see which kind of flight is available.

Arrive well prepared

Confirm the meeting point and arrival time in advance and allow a little extra time. Small airfields are easy to navigate, but they do not operate like conventional passenger terminals.

The exact process and any changes are confirmed directly with the pilot or through the booking details.
