Interregional Fluggesellschaft mbH was a German regional airline that was based in Dusseldorf.

IFG can be traced back to 1966 when LTU began using the F 27 Düsseldorf – Hanover and Düsseldorf – Bremen routes which were subsidized by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.[2] The airline initially used Lufthansa flight numbers. Shortly after the Düsseldorf – Saarbrücken route was added with a Nord 262. The load factor for these flights were 40%.[2] IFG was then founded in 1967. Rising fuel prices and an ATC strike led to IFG ceasing to exist in 1974.
