FLYR: FLYR STARTS TICKET SALES AT THE END OF MAY AND THE FIRST FLIGHT GOES TO TROMSØ ON JUNE 30

08:00
The airline Flyr will start selling tickets at the end of May and the companys

very first flight will go to Tromsø on the 30th of June. The start-up date is

adapted to meet the governments plan for the reopening of Norway.



The governments reopening plan gives us at Flyr the predictability we need to

start ticket sales. To avoid a situation with significant changes in the route

program and subsequent re-bookings that will negatively affect customers, our

start-up is adapted to the governments reopening plan. We experience that

employees and partners are very eager to get started, and not least we

experience great interest from people who want to start traveling again. We look

forward to welcoming customers on board our first flight from Oslo to Tromsø as

well as flights to other cities in Norway and popular destinations in Europe,

said CEO Tonje Wikstrøm Frislid of Flyr.



Flyr will serve a number of Norwegian cities, as well as a selection of

well-known and popular destinations in Europe, including Malaga, Alicante and

Nice. The company will expand the number of aircraft and destinations in line

with demand. The long-term plan is a fleet of 28-30 aircraft.



Flyrs first Boeing 737-800 aircraft will be delivered in May. Additional

aircraft will arrive in June, and the fleet will be expanded through the fall.

At the same time, pilots and cabin crew are about to commence training and

service courses. The first courses are fully booked, and there is a great demand

from skilled people with long aviation experience who want to work for Flyr. The

company now has 45 employees with solid aviation experience and will have about

350 employees by the end of the year.
