Bavaria Germanair was an airline that came into being following the merger of Bavaria Fluggesellschaft and Germanair on 1 January 1977.

The airline's main area of activity was operating charter flights from German airports to European holiday destinations. The airline ceased to operate and lost its separate identity when it was merged into Hapag-Lloyd Flug on 1 January 1979, which itself much later became part of TUI fly Deutschland.
