Default germanwings

so thanks to wegolo.com I was able to score a flight from prague to cologne for like 90 bucks, which is cheaper than a train ticket and equals more time in prague, so, fabulous. but it's on this airline called germanwings. has anyone ever heard of it/used it? I went ahead and bought the cancellation insurance in the event my flight is canceled. it's the only flight that day and I am kind of scared because I fly home from frankfurt the next day so I don't want all this craziness to happen. anyway has anyone heard if this is a pretty reliable service? cos if so, it's kind of a sweet deal. an hour flight and then an hour train ride to frankfurt from cologne, versus and overnight train from prague to frankfurt...

I just don't want it to be too good to be true...

When i was researching cheap flights in Europe last summer their name kept popping up. From everything i could find they seemed reliable. I wouldn't worry much but grabbing that insurance was a safe bet.
