FAQs - booking Iceland flights

  • Do Canadian citizens need to obtain a visa to travel from Ottawa to Iceland?

    Iceland, being part of the Schengen area, allows visa-free travel for Canadian citizens. This exemption applies to stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period, encompassing visits to any Schengen country. However, for extended stays exceeding this duration, a visa is required. It is essential to reach out to the relevant high commission or embassy of the specific Schengen countries you intend to visit and secure the necessary visa(s) before your travel dates.

  • What are the child seat laws parents should know about when flying to Iceland?

    Iceland requires that all children 24 months of age and younger ride in a rear-facing seat and then ride in a forward-facing seat until they are four years old. After that, children up to the age of 10 or a height of 135 cm must ride in either a booster seat or on a booster cushion. Since the country has a well-established child seat law, it is often easy to rent a child seat when you arrive, but it is never a bad idea to bring your own just to be safe.

Not great. Missed my connection flight, due to AC issue. We were sitting on the tarmac for 90 mins before taking off.

Flight was delayed and rescheduled 3 times before being cancelled. Flight was also delayed on our flight in at Moncton airport on August 10th. Never flying with PAL again.

Air Canada was fine but air Canada rouge and air Canada express was terrible with luggage delays. First flight was cancelled so my luggage did not make it to my destination with me. The second flight returning not sure why but my luggage did not make it on my connecting flight. Overall terrible with handling luggage.

The flight was good. My luggage didn’t land with me when I arrived in Columbus. So grateful I was able to get my luggage back within the 2 hours😍👍.

It was out first time flying Air Canada and it was ok, comfort-wise. I hope airlines are able to get a quiet room installed for young children flying. Screaming and crying the whole time in business class is quite unfortunate. That was the only thing that really messed up the experience.

Staff were very friendly. Plane left on time and arrived on time.

Air traffic delay meant boarding started, then plane was evacuated and passengers sent back to the terminal for 1 hour. Very little information shared.

The crew was amazing! I was a bit surprised and disappointed that there was not wifi available for personal use. The only thing I would change would be the seat cushions. They are not comfortable at all for long flights.

It was a very small plane and was ok. No food or entertainment so there should be an option for NA.

We were happy with the service and cost of checking a bag
