Talk:Icelandair

message: The history section states 
A large portion of the air traffic between the United States to Europe flies over Iceland making the island a transfer point for people travelling between the U.S. to Europe and vice versa. This accounts for much of the company's passenger traffic. 
This may be an incorrect assumption or it may be correct.  I read in an aviation magazine that Icelanders travel frequently, more than Americans and most Europeans.  As a result, a lot of the traffic is O&D, not connecting traffic between the US and Europe.
Evidence in favor of this is
1. Dropping LUX from the routes as LUX passengers had a lot of returning American passengers, which declined percentage-wise compared to systemwide.
2. BA subsidiary Go started Stansted to Keflavik service which wouldn't have been started if the Iceland market was small (and if flights filled were mainly Americans and Britons going to the US as Go flights did not interline with FI)
3. Personal observation (original research) where a lot of the passengers on a FI flight were not Americans, but Icelandic.
Evidence in favor that the bulk of traffic is connecting traffic.
1.  Seems logical as KEF is between Europe and the US.  Also FI did carry a fair amount of connecting traffic.

message: Hi guys, I think the article should be improved by some points, mainly:
*The content about pre-merger Loftleiðir should be covered there and removed from the Icelandair article.
*The section about the volcano eruptions is too detailed (covering the event in general) and should be shortened.
There is a page in my userspace with my proposal for the new version of the Icelandair article (when I moved it to mainspace, it was reverted by User:Pontuskóngur), which is why I open the discussion here). Any thoughts? --AdAstra reloaded (talk) 11:23, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: update: According to User:Pontuskóngur, the only thing in question here is the Loftleiðir part, for which I started a merger discussion here. Apart of that, I have reinstated my changes to Icelandair. --AdAstra reloaded (talk) 09:16, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

message: I have a napkin from Icelandair commemorating 80 years of its existence. On it is printed:
"When we started in 1937 our very first aircraft was a seaplane. It had to be – Iceland didn't get an airport until 1946."
Now this could be read to imply:
# All flights to Iceland had to be made with seaplanes until 1946.
# Until 1946 Icelandair only used seaplanes.
With the worldwide dominance of flying boats on commercial long distance flights in the period between the World Wars this is highly probable. And if true, some note to reflect this should be included in the article between the mentioning of the route to Largs and the service with Liberators to Prestwick.
(Bonus points if someone can add where Reykjavik's Seaplane Terminal was located)
