The B737-800 is a part of Bluebird Nordic’s fleet renewal. Last year the company began its expansion, adding additional aircraft to its fleet, and are planning to continue doing so in the upcoming several years. The growing demand for cargo transport is one of the main reasons why Bluebird Nordic has been undergoing new development in its growth plan.
“So far, our and our customers’ experience operating the converted B737-800 is very positive,” Audronė Keinytė, CEO of Bluebird Nordic, said.

Bluebird Nordic, a member of the Avia Solutions Group, is planning to continue adding more B737-800s to its fleet in 2023.
