Boeing Delivers First 757-300 to Icelandair
SEATTLE, March 18, 2002 -- The Boeing Company today delivered a Boeing 757-300 to Icelandair, the Icelandic carrier with an all-Boeing 757 fleet. Icelandair currently operates nine 757-200s and one 757-200 Freighter. With the addition of the 757-300, Icelandair becomes the first carrier in the world to operate all models of the 757 simultaneously. Icelandair also becomes the first airline to operate a dual class 757-300 in the European market. After years of success in the European inclusive tour operator market, the efficient single-aisle 757-300 debuted in scheduled, dual-class service in the North American market last year.
