Feb 08, 2019 (newstodate): Icelandair’s competitive environment will continue to be challenging, the Group says in its Interim Report 2018.
In the summer of 2019 it is estimated that 28 airlines will fly to and from Iceland to over 90 destinations in Europe and North America and the competition will also remain great on the North Atlantic lanes.
In 2019, Icelandair will have 36 aircraft in operation, three more than last year.
Six new Boeing 737 MAX aircraft will be added to the fleet in the course of the year, while the number of Boeing 757-200 aircraft will be reduced by three.
The results of Air Iceland Connect were unacceptable in 2018, however, and the company's operations are now undergoing a thorough review.
-Air Iceland Connect’s operations were very difficult in 2018, with performance declining between years. The company’s performance in the fourth quarter was unacceptable and much poorer in fact than anticipated, the report reads.
