    27 July 2020 | Icelandair Group Interim Report PASSENGER OPERATIONS SEVERELY IMPACTED BY COVID-19 ▪ EBIT negative by USD 105.1 million in Q2 2020, down by USD 81.0 million ▪ Net loss of USD 90.8 million in Q2 ▪ COVID-19-related one-off cost amounted to USD 43.8 million in Q2 and USD 224.8 million in the first 6 months of the year ▪ Equity amounted to USD 118.4 million at the end of June 2020. Equity ratio was 11% ▪ Cash and cash equivalent amounted to USD 153.6 million at the end of June 2020 ▪ Icelandair’s available seat kilometers (ASK) decreased by 97% between years and the number of passengers by 98% ▪ Cargo flight hours doubled from last year BOGI NILS BOGASON, PRESIDENT & CEO “The second quarter was severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We only operated three per cent of our planned passenger flight schedule but focused on keeping vital air routes open to Europe and North America. Revenue, which decreased by 85% between years, was driven by our cargo and aircraft leasing operations where our employees across the Group showed remarkable resourcefulness and flexibility to seize opportunities during this challenging time. In the second quarter, cargo flight hours doubled from last year. We had to take difficult but necessary measures in the quarter to reduce cost and prevent cash outflow. This included significant reduction in our workforce and changes to our organisational structure. The work on the financial restructuring of the Company is progressing and we aim to have reached agreements with all our key stakeholders by the end of July, followed by a share offering in August.

  • Keflavik Airport Makes Ties with Tampa
    7 September 2017 Keflavik Airport makes ties with Tampa Continuing to record significant growth in passenger numbers, Keflavik Airport has welcomed the latest addition to its ever-growing route network with the arrival of Icelandair’s new link to Tampa. With the 5,779-kilometre route operated twice-weekly on the carrier’s 183-seat 757-200s, the Icelandic hub celebrated the inaugural flight of the airport pair yesterday. Becoming Keflavik’s 18th US destination – its 23rd in North America – the new service further consolidates the US as the airport’s largest country market served in terms of S17 seat capacity. Facing no direct competition on the link to Florida’s Gulf Coast, Icelandair adds its 13th US destination from its base, now offering almost 20,000 weekly seats to the US from Iceland’s largest airport. Expecting to reach 8.7 million passengers this year, Keflavik has seen its traffic nearly double since 2015. Photo caption: Celebrating the latest addition to its ever-growing route network, Keflavik Airport welcomes the inaugural flight of Icelandair’s twice-weekly service to Tampa with a traditional fire truck water arch. Notes for Editors Isavia handles the operation and development of all airports in Iceland, including its four international airports – Keflavik, Reykjavik, Akureyri and Egilsstaðir. Keflavik welcomed more than 6.8 million passengers in 2016, flying on the airport’s scheduled services to 100 destinations across 27 countries. This year the airport serves 112 destinations across 30 countries. Monthly passenger traffic growth at Keflavik in June 2017 was 22%.

  • Extract from the Foreword: WELCOME to the TRAIL This Book Is
    Extract from the foreword: WELCOME TO THE TRAIL This book is intended as a helping hand to visitors to Southern Greenland's Norse areas - either when planning their visit or when actually standing on the ruin sites. What was it really like back then when Norse formers and hunters lived here? How and where did they build their houses, how were they fitted out - for everyday life and for special occasions? What do the sagas tell us and what can archaeologists reveal? Often the remains from the past appear incomprehensible, the ruins inconceivable and incoherent and the historic reality hazy or obscured. It is therefore with great pleasure that the three local museums in Southern Greenland, in Nanortalik, Qaqortoq and Narsaq, are able to present this book. Here the experienced and knowledgeable archaeologist Jette Arneborg tells of the large classic Norse sites in our area: Brattahlid, where Erik the Red settled with his family at the end of the 980s; Gardar, where the Norsemen's bishop lived; Hvalsey Fjord's Farm and Church, where the latter is one of the best preserved Norse ruins in Greenland; and finally Herjolfsnes, with its very different location compared to the other sites. An account is given of the links between the sites and the saga texts and the history of the archaeological excavations. The individual ruins are dealt with one by one - and then the whole is placed in the context of the broader Norse history, as can only be done by someone who has immersed themselves in the subject, both in theory and practice, for many years.
