Hi guys.
I must admit I am not a big airlines fan although I do like the odd sky watch to see what landing / taking off. But I would like to know has anyone ever heard of Islandflug / Air Miles airline. I have never heard of them at all. I was just wondering what they are like as I have to fly with them in about a week to Rhodes. a 4 1/2 hour flight. I just like a little prior knowledge of the airlines we fly with.
Cheers
Merlin

Well I kind a know Islandsflug 🙂 I work for this outfit 😀 😀
Islandsflug is an Icelandic Airline. We operate mainly as hired hand airline for other airlines, that is, we provide other airlines with aircraft, crew, maintainance and insureance. Called ACMI lease in the buisness.
Air Miles is a Greek “airline” based in Rhodes. Their only aircraft is the one you will be flying on. It is a B737-400 TF-ELV
We have a total of 7 b737’s flying for various airlines and travel agencies and cargo operators. Amoung the airlines we fly for are Channel Express, Flyglopespan (an off spring of Channel) and Air Miles. Two b737’s also operate for DHL
We also have 3 A300-600 flying cargo, one for Air France, one for DHL and one in Ad-hoc cargo mainly for TNT. One A310 is flying for TNT
Islandsflug also operates domestic flights in Iceland using two Dornier Do228’s
