Its main bases are Reykjavík Airport and Akureyri Airport.[2] It is a subsidiary of Icelandair Group.[3] HistoryAir Iceland Connect can trace its history to 1937. On 3 June that year Flugfélag Akureyrar was established; the airline changed its name to Flugfélag Íslands on 13 March 1940, the third airline to bear this name. The first Flugfélag Íslands was founded on 22 March 1919 and dissolved the following year. A second airline of the same name was founded on 1 May 1928 and operated until 1931.[4] In 1973, Flugfélag Íslands and Loftleiðir merged under the name Flugleiðir hf. Its domestic division was called Flugleiðir while its transatlantic division was called Icelandair.[4] In 1997, Flugleiðir's domestic operation merged with Flugfélag Norðurlands under the name Flugfélag Íslands.[4] Flugfélag Norðurlands was formed in Akureyri by Tryggvi Helgason as Norðurflug, and was incorporated as Flugfélag Norðurlands on 1 May 1975. In late 2011, Flugfélag Íslands acquired two Bombardier Dash 8-200 aircraft for delivery in early 2012. Upon delivery of these aircraft, the airline sold its only Dash 8-100 series aircraft. It previously operated ATR 42 aircraft, wet leased from Islandsflug, from 2000 to 2003.[5] A fleet of three Bombardier Dash 8-Q400 aircraft replaced the airline's five Fokker 50 aircraft in 2015-16. Services using the new aircraft included routes to Aberdeen which started in March 2016, and Belfast which began in June 2017; flown out of Keflavík International Airport. In May 2017, Flugfélag Íslands announced it had rebranded as Air Iceland Connect. The airline said in a statement that it had decided to modify its name owing to a number of factors such as increased exposure to international markets and tourists, increased co-operation with Icelandair and to simplify marketing, as the company’s dual name system had meant a significant increase in costs, caused some passengers inconvenience, and led to misunderstandings.[6] Dropping the Icelandic name resulted in complaints about the attack on the Icelandic language.[7] In February 2018, Air Iceland Connect announced a strategy change by focusing on regional destinations. Therefore, flights to the United Kingdom had been cut by 14 May 2018 and the Bombardier Dash 8 Q400s will be phased out.[8] Air Iceland Plane TypesDestinations[9]Air Iceland Connect additionally cooperates and code-shares on flights to the Faroe Islands operated by Atlantic Airways as well as on services to Grímsey, Thorshofn, and Vopnafjörður operated by Norlandair.
Fleet{{As of|2018|08}}, the Air Iceland Connect fleet consisted of the following aircraft:
Among the destinations, most in Greenland and some in Iceland have runways less than {{convert|1100|m|ft}} in length. The Dash 8-200 is the only aircraft type possessed by Air Iceland Connect compatible with such runways. Its retired fleet includes Fokker 50s.[10][11] Accidents and incidents
