Icelandair will be continuing its flight service from Glasgow this winter with four flights to Iceland per week operating on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.
There is also good news for passengers booking flights to North America from Glasgow as Icelandair is offering its transatlantic passengers the opportunity to stop over in Iceland and experience every that the country has to offer such as spectacular lakes, rivers, waterfalls, mountains, hot springs and in the winter the breathtaking northern lights.
Stopover passengers can experience the moon-like landscape of the Reykjanes peninsula filled with lava fields, volcanoes and craters or to the South coast to uncover it’s black sand beaches, waterfalls and glaciers.
Passengers also get the chance to explore the bubbling hot springs of Geysir, the historic beauty of Thingvellir and the breathtaking sight of the Gullfoss waterfall, especially when the water turns into Ice during the depths of winter.
Icelandair is one of Iceland’s longest established companies, connecting the world and Iceland for over 70 years.
Icelandair flies from the UK to Iceland with connecting service to Boston, Halifax, Minneapolis/St. Paul, New York City, Orlando, Seattle and Toronto.
Dulles International Airport in Washington, DC will also be added to the service in May 2011.

I’ve always wanted to go and explore Scandinavia and in particular Iceland – as long as the volcanoe isn’t going to be feeling active again! My friend went over recently and highly recommended the hot springs – apparently if you jump into an ice cold bath and then into the springs that’s the best way to cleanse your body.
She also advised I stay in the Icelandair Flughotel but I’m open to any second opinions out there too..
