Jun 15, 2016 (newstodate): Driving the adjustment to Atlantic Airways' strategy that now builds exclusively on three Airbus A320 Family aircraft is a renewed emphasis on sale of excess capacity in the charter market.
This was not part of the former strategy that foresaw a return to capacity tailored to serving the needs of the Faero Islands' for air transportation to and from Denmark as well as to destinations under the NORD strategy, with no ACMI and charter sales.
But - supporting this new thinking is yesterday's announcement of a significant contract for charter flights serving the Danish tour operator Folkeferie.
Under the five-year contract, Atlantic Airways will fly Folkeferie tourists to a number of Mediterranean and other leisure destinations starting from Summer 2016.
Atlantic Airways is thus to replace two other Danish carriers, Jet Time and DAT currently serving Folkeferie.
