Icelandʼs unique location between Europe and North America is the key to Icelandairʼs hub-and-spoke network, which our efficient fleet of Boeing aircraft is well suited to serve, with the addition of Airbus aircraft beginning in winter 2024-25.
Our fleet of De Havilland Canada aircraft (commonly known as the Dash) serves our domestic Iceland network and operations to Greenland and the Faroe Islands.
Our fleet renewal
Fleet renewal is currently the most effective measure for airlines to reduce emissions. Icelandair is proud to be renewing and expanding our fleet, and over the past decade we've invested in the fuel-efficient Boeing 737 MAX. From December 2024, we also welcome new Airbus A321LR aircraft to our fleet.
Recently we signed a contract for the purchase of Airbus A321XLR aircraft, taking delivery from 2029 as we gradually retire our Boeing 757s. The Airbus aircraft are more fuel efficient and emit lower carbon emissions per unit than older-generation aircraft.

Our livery
Our base colors are midnight blue and white. Icelandair’s aircraft have five different tail colors (boreal blue, magenta, sky blue, yellow, and green), representing different elements in Icelandic nature, in particular the northern lights.
In addition, over the past decade we've dressed our aircraft in unique liveries to celebrate special occasions and highlight spectacular Icelandic natural phenomena.
