Vintage Icelandair Junior Stewardess Wings Pin Badge

This delightful vintage wings pin from Icelandair is a classic “Junior Stewardess” badge, issued to young girls as a cherished souvenir on flights during the airline’s earlier decades (likely 1960s–1980s, when “stewardess” was the common term). Crafted in gold-toned metal with enamel accents, it features stylized wings flanking a central oval plaque reading “ICELANDAIR” in blue lettering, and a lower bar inscribed “JUNIOR STEWARDESS”.

These junior badges were part of Icelandair’s tradition of engaging young passengers—handing out wings to make kids feel like part of the crew, a beloved practice across many airlines in the golden age of air travel. A nostalgic gem from Iceland’s flag carrier, evoking memories of transatlantic adventures and the glamour of flying. Ideal for collectors of aviation memorabilia, airline wings pins, Icelandair history, vintage travel souvenirs, or gender-specific junior badges from the era.
