Icelandic airline Icelandair has said it will lay off about 2,000 of its staff as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to impact air travel “for the unforeseeable future”.
“To respond to the situation, Icelandair Group is taking extensive measures to get the Company through an extended period of minimum operations, including a considerable reduction in the number of employees and changes to its organisational structure,” the airline said in a statement.
