History
Foundation
Flyr was founded by Erik G. Braathen in 2020, the former CEO of the now-defunct Norwegian carrier Braathens. The name Flyr is Norwegian for flying. In June 2021, Flyr was issued an air operator's certificate by the Civil Aviation Authority of Norway. The airline originally planned to operate up to 30 aircraft to domestic and European destinations, while selling tickets to passengers solely via their own mobile app.[3] The first flight from Oslo to Tromsø was operated by a Boeing 737-800.[4]
