We are on a journey to build Europe’s first all-electric passenger airline.
We believe that before the turn of the century, all flights within Europe should be electric. To get there, the work begins now — with short routes, small planes and big ambitions.
The case for electric flight
The future we choose
01 · The challenge
Without real change, aviation’s share in pollution will increase
25% of all flights are under 500km, representing some 40 million tons of CO2 annually. Passengers want more sustainable travel options. EU legislation mandates companies to reduce travel emissions.
High-speed rail alternatives are often not that high-speed, or unavailable all together. And aviation changes slowly.

CO₂ a year
Battery-electric aircraft would cause zero in-flight emission. That transition doesn’t happen overnight. But we believe every big change starts small, and the time to start is now.
02 · The market
Europe’s short-haul market is large, and growing.
An electric airline serving one in every thousand passengers who fly less than 500 km in Europe in 2040 could generate €80 million in annual revenue.
Not including rail passengers, cars, private jets and unrealised regional potential.

03 · The technology
Electricity beats the other energy sources.
Of the energy you put in, battery-electric flight delivers by far the most to the aircraft. And unlike hydrogen and e-SAF, the infrastructure to generate and distribute electricity is already largely in place, and it scales.
04 · The infrastructure
Europe has ±335 airports suitable for regional air mobility.
Smaller airports are mostly underused. Our ambition is to connect them, using smaller, quiet and zero-emission aircraft, flying at lower altitudes than traditional aviation. A bit like a high-speed rail network, but in the air.
05 · The aircraft
Electric aircraft are already flying. Larger ones are in the making, with first deliveries expected around 2030.

Invest with purpose.
That is why we grow in phases. Early capital buys position, demand and access to manufacturers, not aircraft or route risk.
-
Emerging technology
Aircraft must mature and be certified, and most airports are not yet equipped for electric flight.
-
Chicken and egg
No aircraft at scale without customers, and no customers without aircraft. We build the demand first.
-
Geopolitical uncertainty
Electric flight reduces Europe’s dependence on imported kerosene.
-
Capital and time
Building an airline from scratch is capital-intensive and takes years.
