We interview Carl-Oscar Lawaczeck, OceanSky Cruises Founder and CEO, to talk abou his vision to fly the great airships again and to pioneer a new era of sustainable aviation.

In the 20s, the flight of large airships was elitist and inaccessible to most. It seemed

past.

Airships are commonly compared to airplanes, probably because both are aerial vehicles. However, that’s where the similarities end. Airships are better compared to trains from a passenger’s perspective.
