...Icelandair says no Freshaer Irish Times Tues
......it also emerged yesterday the Iceland Air sister company, Luftleidir, which was supposed to provide the FreshAer service when it began in October, has stopped negotiating with the company. A Luftleidir spokesman said the talks ended at the weekend and added that it was unlikely that it would enter into any agreement with the British-based business.
FreshAer has begun the process of applying to the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) and the Commission for Aviation Regulation (CAR) for its airline and tour operator licences. It is likely to take at least six months to get certification.
The firm had been running a promotion with the Evening Herald newspaper offering free flight vouchers to readers. A spokesman for Independent News & Media, which owns the paper, said it had not issued any vouchers after learning FreshAer was not licensed.
