Iceland Express Flights

Iceland Express is the great little airline, launched in 2002, which smashed the monopoly of Icelandair and brought down the cost of air travel to Iceland. Iceland Express is based in Iceland’s capital, Reykjavik, and flies to 15 destinations across Europe. The two flag-ship routes are from Iceland to London Stansted and Copenhagen, both of which operate year round and increase to twice daily during the summer months.

Iceland Express uses a fleet of MD 90 aircraft with approximately 165 seats. The on-board service is classically Icelandic with no fuss, lots of smiles and some of the best cheese and ham toasted baguettes available anywhere in the skies!
