Helium-filled passenger airships made by a venture backed by Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson will soon be sailing Spanish skies.
Air Nostrum, a regional partner carrier for Iberia, has signed an agreement with the UK’s Hybrid Air Vehicles to be the launch airline for its Airlander 10 aircraft, the company said in a statement. The Spanish firm has reserved 10 100-seat versions of the craft and aims to have them in service from 2026.
