Iceland Express: Reykjavik to Goteborg

The carrier: Iceland Express

About

Iceland Express is the only low-cost carrier with a hub in Iceland. It's also very likely the savviest budget airline in Europe, with an exciting and well-designed site. Iceland's low-fare airline connects the Icelandic capital of Reykjavík with airports in Scandinavia, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain and North America.  Iceland Express runs a much expanded service in the summer.

Upside

Iceland's only budget airline sometimes offers some great deals as well as good service and friendly flight crew.

Downside

To-and-from-Iceland route map is of limited utility. Fares are sometimes expensive for a budget airline.

Baggage

* Carry-on: One bag and one personal item, total weight not to exceed 10 kg.
* Checked: Up to 20 kg of luggage. Over this limit, you are charged €11 per kilo. (Ouch!)

* Please visit Helvetic’s website for more information on its baggage policy.

Seating

You can reserve seats up to 24-hours in advance of your flight. A small non-refundable fee applies. If you don’t book a seat, one will be selected for you at check-in free of charge.

Check-in and Ticketing

Online check-in is available between 60 days and 24 hours prior to departure.  Only passengers bringing only carry-on luggage that have pre-booked seats may check-in online.

Tip
We love the "Icebreaker"deal section of Iceland Express' site. Check it frequently for promotions.
