Oct 07, 2022 (newstodate): Icelandair has now taken delivery of its first converted Boeing 767-300ER freighter aircraft.
    The second aircraft so far ordered for conversion at ST Engineering facility in Singapore is reportedly due to follow in the coming weeks already.
   After redelivery of the two Boeing 767-300 aircraft, two Boeing 757 freighters now in the fleet of Icelandair will be retired in 2023 and 2024, respectively, as their lease periods expire.
   Compared to the Boeing 757-200F freighter now in service with Icelandair Cargo, the converted Boeing 767-300ER freighter will offer up to 50 percent more cargo capacity and longer range, and Icelandair Cargo is to introduce new US-Europe cargo routes already from November 2022.
   To facilitate the conversion works, Icelandair Group has signed a 10 years sale/lease-back agreement with Titan Aircraft Investments for the two converted Boeing 767-300ER aircraft.
