Yes.
Let
g
send the
first
flag
to the
second
and write
d
=
det
g
=
0
. In an adapted
basis
of the target
flag
, scale its
first
vector
by
d
−
1
and fix the others. This
defines
a
flag
-preserving
map
h
with
determinant
d
−
1
. Then
h
g
still sends the
first
flag
to the
second
and has
determinant
one. Thus
SL
(
n
,
K
)
is
transitive
as
well.
