Actually, the Wowair successor should have been up in the air long ago. It is now aiming for a start in October 2020 and it is assumed that 2021 planes will be flying in the summer of 15.

The Icelandic start-up Play wants to take advantage of the new situation on the market and even benefit from the Corona crisis. The aim is to take advantage of the currently favorable leasing conditions and to build up a pure Airbus fleet. The first flight should now take place in October this year.

It is conceivable that the new low-cost airline will have up to 15 aircraft next summer, like ch-aviation.com reported. “The situation on the leasing market has changed a lot in the last two or three months. The prices differ fundamentally from those at the beginning of the year, ”says CEO Skúli Skúlason.
