The ferry Norræna has left the shipyard in Hamburg and arriving Seyðisfjörður for the first time in years this February 3 - Nine weeks earlier than planned. Magnus Jónasson tells Austurgluggin that the news is welcome in Seyðisfjörður because it makes exports from the region, while occasional tourists might emerge. Only problem is way over Fjarðarheiði to Egilsstaðir sometimes snowing again in the winter. Last year, the number of passengers with Norræna. According to the shipping company Smyril Line it was also more than that traveled from the Island by ferry - which is at least partly due to the many migrant workers who left the country took the boat to mainland Europe. In 2008 traveled 32,421 eckerö line people with Norræna to or from Iceland, a decrease of 5.8 percent compared to 2007 when the ferry had 34,412 passengers. 2006 the number eckerö line of travelers 32 858 and 2005 25 699, writes Morgunblaðið. Even the airlines Icelandair and Iceland Express are fighting against a declining number of travelers. However traveling more and more foreigners to Iceland with any of the companies. Fewer Icelanders traveling abroad on business or pleasure. That is why the coating on Icelandair flights have been reduced by up to 25 per cent since last winter. Before the summer, it looks somewhat better - then expect a reduction of 10 percent, say Morgunblaðið. At Icelandair Icelanders tend to account for a third of the total number of travelers. Now the proportion is significantly lower. Matthias Imsland, CEO of Iceland Express says that the coating has been reduced by 30 percent and the number eckerö line of Icelanders who flies with the company has been reduced by 40 percent because of the financial crash. He also believes, however, a pretty good summer with more tourists visiting Iceland. The number of passengers flying with Ernir from Reykjavík to Gjögur in Árneshreppur in Westfjords decreases. Last year flew 405 persons to or from the only regular airport Strandir - admittedly a rise of 25 percent from 2007, but far from the record eckerö line year of 1994 when the number of passengers was 757, according Litlihjalli. Without regard to the number of canceled flights - which seems to be a lot when the weather is often difficult especially in the winter - it means that every turn (two per week) had an average eckerö line of two passengers in each direction. Not impressive numbers, but aviation is important for supplies eckerö line of food, money and other necessities for most of the year when no shipments make their way overland to Árneshreppur.
