Airport lays off 20 staff members

Vágar Airport’s management has prioritised staff deemed essential for meeting official requirements and for the continued responsible operation of the company until the aviation industry gets back on its feet.
“This has been an incredibly tough decision, and we hope we will be able to offer our laid-off staff members their jobs again as soon as possible when things return to normal,” says Jacobsen.
