The Icelandics seem to have their own agenda, IEX getting new A/C and WOW AIR starting up, new AOCs, and in the mean time routes suddenly covered by CSA and Norwegen? Hmmm? these things take a while to organise, I suspect they knew well in advance the plug would be pulled. The financial constraints imposed by the CAA for start up airlines, new lease costs and deposits, and the ACMI business model will be unattractive to investors with so much spare capacity in the market, sadly it's the end of the road..but if the guys are prepared to work abroad and fits their home lives, there are many opportunities around.
