About ISAVIA

We provide services in the air and on the ground

ISAVIA handles almost all air navigation services provided by Iceland including an extensive responsibility for international services in the North Atlantic.

ISAVIA also has responsibility for the operation and development of fourteen airports with scheduled services in all parts of the country.

ISAVIA conducts flight calibrations in Iceland, the Faroe Islands and Greenland and undertakes diverse support tasks, such as the development of Pristina Airport and ATM services in Kosovo.

A reorganization of the Icelandic Civil Aviation Administration (ICAA) took effect at the end of 2006. This resulted in the establishment of a new limited shareholding company, ISAVIA, that took over responsibility for the provision of air navigation services and airport operations. The ICAA retains the responsibility for public policy and safety regulation as well as assuming a more assertive role in economic regulation.

Services are provided by two divisions, the Airport and Navigation Systems Division responsible for the operation of airports and navigation systems and the Air Traffic Management Division, responsible for the air traffic control services.

The Finance and Administrative Division is responsible for the company’s finances, human resources and administrative services. ISAVIA´s headquarters are located at Reykjavik Airport near the city centre. 

ISAVIA is completely state-owned and its shares administered by the Minister of Transportation.  At the time of its establishment two subsidiaries companies were formed as a part of the concern, namely GANNET Communications and TERN Systems, which is also partly owned by the University of Iceland.

ISAVIA has a staff of 230 serving in all parts of the country.
