Company profile
researched Aug 2026LYGG is a Finland-based regional air mobility operator that aggregates the recurring business travel needs of companies in the North Sea Region and matches that pooled demand with aircraft capacity to establish direct point-to-point routes. Companies buy "Serial Tickets" reflecting their expected travel volumes, and LYGG uses the committed demand to schedule connections between regional airports serving offshore, marine and energy industries. Flights are sold exclusively to companies holding a corporate agreement rather than to individual leisure travellers, and the site notes that sales are not covered by the ATOL scheme.
The company's stated aim is to reconnect regions it describes as underserved by hub-to-hub networks, positioning shorter direct regional links as a way to reduce travel time, cost and emissions. Its product surface includes route pages for Esbjerg, Groningen, Den Helder and Norwich, a "Tailored Route" option, corporate booking, pricing and airport information. According to a third-party company directory, LYGG describes itself as a regional air mobility platform that partners with established aircraft operators rather than operating its own fleet.
Founding story
LYGG was founded by pilot and aviation entrepreneur Roope Kekäläinen, who serves as CEO, on the premise that hub-to-hub route networks have left smaller cities disconnected and cost travellers time. That premise underpins the company's stated mission to connect regions, empower people and sustain the future.
Business model
LYGG sells access to regional flights to corporate customers through "Serial Tickets" purchased against a company's recurring travel needs; the aggregated commitments are then matched to aircraft capacity to create scheduled connections. Flights are available only to companies with a corporate agreement.
Revenue comes from corporate ticket sales, principally Serial Ticket packages bought by companies with corporate agreements, with published pricing and a corporate booking channel.
Traction
As of August 2026 the Esbjerg–Groningen connection was live, with an expansion to Den Helder and an on-demand Norwich connection announced for the same month.
Latest developments
On 28 July 2026 LYGG announced further growth of its North Sea network; on 5 August 2026 Esbjerg Airport and LYGG launched a direct Esbjerg–Groningen Airport Eelde connection; and on 6 August 2026 the company held launch events at Esbjerg Airport and Groningen Airport.

Market position
LYGG positions itself as a regional air mobility platform serving routes it considers underserved by existing hub-and-spoke networks in the North Sea Region.

Technology
LYGG describes itself as a regional air mobility platform that matches pooled corporate demand with aircraft capacity, supported by online corporate booking.
Go-to-market
Direct corporate sales, with named sales, new-client and growth contacts offering booked meetings, supported by airport partnerships (for example with Esbjerg Airport), a corporate booking portal, customer care in English during CET business hours, and a news/press-release and newsletter channel.
Companies with recurring business travel between North Sea regional hubs, particularly in the offshore, marine and energy sectors.
Geography
Operations centre on the North Sea Region, with route points at Esbjerg (Denmark), Groningen Airport Eelde and Den Helder (Netherlands) and Norwich (United Kingdom). The website lists an address in Vantaa, Finland (Kielotie 7B, 01300); a third-party directory lists a Helsinki address.
History
A company directory lists LYGG as founded in 2020 and headquartered in Helsinki, Finland.

In August the route was set to expand to an Esbjerg–Groningen–Den Helder connection alongside an on-demand Norwich connection.
