Jan 09, 2018 (newstodate): Iceland's cargo carrier Bluebird Cargo has been re-branded and is now trading under the name Bluebird Nordic.
Apart from the name-change, little seems to be altered as the carrier remains operating under its original registration and legal name in the Icelandic registry.
With HQs at Keflavik Airport, Iceland, Bluebird Nordic provides ACMI freighter services for integrators and ad-hoc wet-lease services throughout Europe, Asia and North America.
In the fleet are now four Boeing 737-300SF and three Boeing 737-400SF freighters.
The lease of three of four Boeing 737-300 aircraft was due to expire in 2017, while the fourth was to be redelivered to its lessor by May 2018.
But instead of redelivering the first three Boeing 737-300 aircraft, the carrier has decided to buy them, and operations with the four freighters are therefore continuing.
At the same time, Bluebird Nordic took delivery in 2017 from KV Aviation of its third Boeing 737-400 freighter after conversion by Aeronautical Engineers, Inc.
