Sep 29, 2022 (newstodate): The first of two Boeing 767-300ER passenger aircraft in the fleet of Icelandair is now soon to return to the fleet after completion of cargo conversion.
In May 2022, the aircraft was flown to ST Engineering facility in Singapore for conversion to freighter after having been stored during the Covid-19 period, and the second aircraft followed shortly after.
After conversion of the two Boeing 767-300 aircraft, redelivery of the first aircraft is slated for September 2022, and two Boeing 757 freighters now in the fleet of Icelandair will then be retired in 2023 and 2024, respectively, as their lease periods expire.
To facilitate the transaction, Icelandair Group has signed a 10 years sale/lease-back agreement with Titan Aircraft Investments for the two converted Boeing 767-300ER aircraft.
