Iceland: Icelandair cuts winter flights to Halifax

“In order to secure future growth in Nova Scotia and despite our intended goal of year-round service, Icelandair regretfully announces it has become necessary to suspend winter service from Halifax, Canada. This adjustment is a reflection of broader strategies within the entire company; departments, employee numbers and schedules are being decreased in an attempt to streamline work processes and reduce costs. These actions are the result of external economic factors that could not be foreseen when the service was launched. As scheduled, Icelandair will operate three flights weekly through August 30, 2008, with two flights weekly until October 20, 2008, when service will be suspended. Service will then resume with two flights weekly beginning May 14, 2009, and with three flights weekly beginning June 13, 2009, until August 31, 2009. Flights will then return to two flights weekly September 1, 2009".
