The airline was formed in Akureyri by Tryggvi Helgason as Nordurflug, and was incorporated as Flugfelag Nordurlands on 1 May 1975. A reorganisation and merger of Icelandair Domestic and Norlandair (Flugfélag Nordurlands) resulted in the present name in 1997. It is wholly owned by Icelandair Group and had 226 employees in March 2007.[2]
In June 2011 the Air Iceland fleet consisted of the following aircraft, with an average age of 19.1 years:[3]
