LYGG (Airline?)

Interesting new concept;

LYGG Launches Direct Esbjerg-Stavanger Route in February 2026 to Serve North Sea Industries - LYGG

LYGG will launch a direct flight connection between Esbjerg and Stavanger in February 2026. The initial schedule is published now.

Seems to have ambitions to link to HUY at some point and appears to be a business demand led venture.

I am sorry, but the sceptic in me thinks that this is a little "far fetched", but it will be good if HUY gets it's link back to Esbjerg.

You’re probably right to be skeptical, I’m not sure if this is a paper airline - merely a charter broker. There is demand for travel between Humberside and the North Sea renewables cluster in Denmark/Scandinavia, as previously evidenced by SunAirs previous schedules to HUY. Indeed the website mentions partnering with current operators and pooling corporate requirements using aircraft with capacity of 19 and 33 seats. This suggests to me that they plan on using SunAirs J32 and DO328 fleets, SunAir of course having abandoned all scheduled flights but still retaining the fleet for ACMI work.

What I’m not convinced about is the lack of flexibility when compared to KLM when it comes to moving people around. It’s quite clear that their intention is to modify schedules based on demand from industry. Certainly won’t be something the general public would be interested in, nor do I believe any flights will be available to the general public should they ever happen.

They are not an airline. In fact the LYGG company went bankrupt in May 2025. The founder keeps using the old name, although it is registered to the bankrupt company FlyMaas Oy from Finland. LYGG took in over 8 million of investor and government money, before shutting everything down and leaving the investors and other debtors with nothing. And this is not the first time the founder has done it. It is very much his M.O... Probably tries the same again, taking in investor money, before shutting everything down.

Interesting, thanks for the heads up.
