Description[]
In the Narita game, Sky German was solely a long haul operator, using huge planes like the A380 to transport passengers to far-flung destinations. Not being a Japanese carrier, Sky German is rare in both games but not exceedingly. The first GSK flight appears early in the game and reappears about every four stages on average.
Sky German remains the one and only German airline in the Airport Hero series. It is possible that Sky German is supposed to represent Lufthansa, but it is not as obvious as some other airlines in the games are. Sky German only operates flights to large German cities, such as Frankfurt, Berlin, and Hamburg.
GSK only operates A380s into Narita, meaning they can only park at the A380 gates in Terminal 1. The player can pick which gate the flight will go to when dealing with an arrival, but you will always find departures in the A380 gate on the right side of Terminal 1, in between the APA section.

In AH Osaka-KIX, Sky German looked slightly different, with new stylized lettering, and a new ICAO code (SYG) They operate mostly to San Francisco and Frankfurt, and only flew 747s and one A340. This may be hinting to the obsolete nature of the A340 in the real world. There have also been unconfirmed reports of Sky German 777s in the Camera Stages. Overall, the airline is rarer than it was in the previous game.
Sky German planes at Kansai can only start and end at the North International Terminal, alongside Unicorn Air, Wing China, and Azix flights.
