Additional flights include an eighth weekly Seattle flight with wing-to-wing flights on Mondays; a third weekly Vancouver flight, on Thursdays; and a seventh Newark flight on Sundays. One of the biggest increases this year will be from Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP). Starting April 7th, Icelandair will offer four flights a week with its seasonal service extended until January 10, 2016, increased from Oct 27th. In 2016, this service will resume in mid-March, pushed forward from the original commencement date in May.

Icelandair’s European destinations will also see a boost from June to September with London Gatwick and Zurich offering 6 flights a week and Amsterdam and Paris adding to wing-to-wing service on Wednesdays and Sundays, respectively. Scandinavia will also see an additional Bergen/Stavanger flight on Fridays.
