Airlines

Icelandair is well-known for its stopover program, which allows passengers to stay in Iceland for a few days at no extra charge. It’s a great way for families to see a new place and explore a new country on their way to and from Europe. When my family travels, we enjoy spending a couple days exploring Reykjavik and Iceland’s natural beauty as part of our trip. Iceland has become one of my family’s favorite destinations. We always find something new to do, no matter how many times we visit.

 

However, I recently discovered Icelandair also offers long weekend escapes. These packages are a great value. Plus, for families like mine on the East Coast, Iceland is only a five-hour flight, making it easy to go for a quick trip.

 

There is a dream Icelandair vacation package for every type of family. Choose from packages taking you around the Golden Circle, in search of the Northern Lights, to soak in Iceland’s famed hot springs, for a quick city escape or to the nearby Faroe Islands.

 

Icelandair also offers longer packages perfect for extended school breaks or summer vacations. These trips will take you around Iceland’s famed Ring Road or to Nuuk in Greenland.

 

These packages are a great choice for families who want to fly on a family-friendly airline and take the guesswork out of booking hotels and activities in Iceland, so parents can relax and enjoy their trip.
