FAQs - booking Iceland flights

  • Are there any nonstop flights from Vancouver to Iceland?

    Icelandair operates nonstop flights to Reykjavik (KEF) on select days of the week. These flights leave in the afternoon and will get you to Iceland in under 8 hours. If these days and times do not work, WestJet offers a flight with only one layover, still getting you to your destination efficiently. If your flight does include a layover, Calgary (YYC) is where you will most likely stop.

  • Will I be charged extra for my baggage?

    All baggage fees are set by the airline and determined by which ticket type you book. On WestJet, their Basic fare does not include a checked bag and you will be charged extra for it. You can upgrade to EconoFlex to have a checked bag included with your ticket. With Icelandair, you can bring one carry-on free of charge on Economy Light. To have a checked bag added, upgrade to Economy Standard.

  • What travel documents do I need for my flight to Iceland?

    Iceland is a part of the Schengen Zone, making travel more seamless between the member states. If you're using a Canadian passport, you do not need a visa for the Schengen Zone and are good to go for a trip to Iceland. There is no need for a visa if you plan to stay as a tourist for up to 90 days. Just ensure your passport is valid for at least 90 days beyond your return date from Iceland. In addition, you should have a return ticket or proof of onward travel if asked.

  • Where should I fly if I want to visit the Faroe Islands?

    To experience the dramatic landscapes, towering cliffs, and cozy villages of these North Atlantic islands, flying into Reykjavik is your best choice. From here, you can connect to another flight bound for the islands. Icelandair usually operates these flights in partnership with local airlines.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Iceland

  • Your journey will begin at Vancouver International Airport (YVR). It's a good idea to arrive early, and while you wait, you can spend your time at the Plaza Premium Lounge on level 3 of the international terminal. In there, you can enjoy refreshments, TVs, and Wi-Fi.
  • If you want to lessen your environmental impact, consider flying direct. On average, nonstop flights produce about 25% less emissions than connecting flights. In addition, you can participate in WestJet’s program, to combat climate change by buying carbon-offset credits for your travels.
  • An alternative airport you can fly out of is Abbotsford International Airport (YXX), located about 65 km east of Vancouver. Flights from this airport, however, are likely to have a layover and add a little more time to your journey.
  • Streamline your arrival at Keflavik Airport (KEF) by arranging a meet and greet service. You will be welcomed with a personal assistant who will escort you through the airport and passport control and help you with your bags. This can be especially useful for first-time flyers.
  • Consider upgrading to the EconoFlex fare on WestJet for added flexibility. With this fare, you can change or cancel your flight with no fee, select your seat in advance, and bring one checked bag free of charge.

Airline reviews

We traveled with a 7 year old that has autism and he is significantly cognitively delayed. Your site makes it known there are no wagons allowed even if they fold down flat and many autistic children cannot travel without one because they are unable to follow directions or cooperate with walking through the airport and are too big for a stroller. Please consider making exceptions for our special needs children. Also it would be very thoughtful if you’d allow seat selection for no fee for special needs families. The autistic child we traveled with must sit behind another adult in our family because he continuously kicks the seat in front of him and is unable to understand why that is disruptive. We had to pay quite a bit extra to have our 4 seats situated with 2 in row 19 and 2 in row 20 directly behind.

The crew was excellent. The turbulence was very bad and they were unable to serve our dinner. The captain informed the passengers that we were going to get water and snack instead. They provided us ample snacks instead. Otherwise the trip was good.

I loved the fact it was on time and it was a smooth flight to my destination.

Service was okay except attendant over served alcohol to passenger and passenger got tipsy and made me uncomfortable

Could not make the flight. No one would help us at all

Great flight, great landing, nice staff. Our seats were a little cramped.

Overall good experience. The wait for baggage at our destination was quite long, but other than that everything was good as expected

Do not fly on WestJet if you have a connection. It failed to integrate with my connecting Delta flight and I almost missed it.

The experience was good just the upcharge of over a hundred dollars was not cool.

There was a man who was very rude at boarding. On the other hand personal bag measuring box is too small compared to USA airlines,

If I’m gonna sit in the 39th row You might as well let me on after the first class passengers Especially if I have no luggage for overhead Just a thought

Noticed a marked difference in keg room from last flight. Would consider other airline on next red eye.

It was great! Very comfortable plane, crew was great, would definitely take this flight again.

Awful, I was bumped from my buisness class seat because the airline decided to forfeit my seat to a pilot and stick me in the very back of the plane. My flight was delayed by an hour, boarding took an extra 30 minutes longer then it should have, and the in flight entertainment system was broken for my entire flight. I have yet to hear from Air Canada with regards to a refund for my ticket so in total I'm down about $1400 dollars for my tickets. Moving forward if I can avoid using Air Canada in the future I will be doing so even if it costs me extra money.

Flight was late missed our connection to Indianapolis no hotel rooms really difficult finding a room hope to be in Indianapolis one day late and multiple flights to even get there.

Everything was great except that I wasn’t issued a boarding pass for the second flight so they would not let me into customs until I had said boarding pass. Luckily a gate attendant from another Air Canada flight was able to print one for me so I could go through.

I suppose to board the plane AC5110 to San Francisco on July 16 2026 @07:00 am and arrive San Francisco at 09:25 am. At 9:30am still in YVR I was told the plane was delayed until 11:30 am to take off. Not until 11:35am the pilot of the plane declared that due to hydraulic system problem this plane was cancelled. After waited in a long pile up for negotiating with the counter-staff, I finally got the tickets for myself and my wife Yim Mei KONG firstly to Seattle and then transferred to San Francisco on the plane AS 2014 & AS 791 with Alaska Airlines. I suppose to attend the funeral of our friend in San Francisco on July 18 and a Memorial Gathering for the Birthday of the deceased on July 16, 2026. I arrived San Francisco at 9:40 pm that day (12 hours later) and couldn't joint the Memorial Gathering. This upset me a lot. I am seeking for compensation of this failing trip. Please let me know how to and where to forward my complaint.

Well I had insisted to be put on standby because I knew there was one seat so there should have been another. There was, seat 36AC for both of us, the last row in the plane that does not recline nor does it have any room in the overhead bin because of plane necessities. The bathroom right behind so a line up with people's bums on your arm rests, etc. We were happy to get a flight earlier because of the missed connection, but we saw flight people who were sitting in customer seats and I felt we should have been seated there and they should have been put in the back. Plus the stewardesses were wearing so much perfume, I had to hold my nose because of a severe allergy to perfume.

No charger and no entertainment on the way back. The plane's super old-like 80s old-with zero TVs. At least the free Wi-Fi works, so definitely bring your iPad. Also, no meal on this 7-hour flight.

This was the best Air Canada experience i've ever had! We didn't realize we could switch to an earlier flight and I asked the attendant as they were boarding the 8pm flight. She kindly let me know to make such requests prior to boarding in the future, but she was very understanding that we just came through security with young kids and was able to make the changes for us. When we got on the plane, the lady in the back was super friendly, welcoming, and kind. She was great with our kids and with the other passengers and we just enjoyed her presence so much!.

Horrible. My dad was recently hospitalized and diagnosed with lymphoma and Icelandair refused to refund flight even though I had a letter from his physician.

Let's just say I won't do it again.

The WiFi wasn’t working, so no one could watch any entertainment for 5 hours. The plane also was delayed and did not leave, nor did the staff prioritize those with connecting flights to de-board first. Everyone with a connecting flight to Munich missed their flight by 5 minutes. Then the next flight to Munich was 14 hours later. The airport could not compensate us because the closest hotel was about 2 hours away. This did not seem like the truth. I was not pleased with this traveling experience.

Just be careful, it is not business class, not flat seats, just as in comfort plus.

Only serving 2 small coffee in 7.5 hrs flight with very limited choice to order food.

Booked with Kayak… Economy Class it said. I had filtered for 1 checked bag. Get to boarding and it says I have Economy Light w/ no checked bags. $136 each way for baggage now. Do not use smartfares.com. Very misleading and a terrible start to this trip.

Overall good. I was surprised how easy it was to get from plain to plain in such a short time. Food choices were not so great and quite expensive. Entertainment was ok. Flights were smooth.

The staff was really friendly and was comfortable. I found it disappointing that we were never offered any snacks while on the flight. For such a long flight and the amount we paid for our ticket that was unacceptable. Not sure if I’ll fly Icelandair again.

One small complaint: people in economy frequently were coming through the curtain to use the saga lavatory.

On time and crew were good. Our seating arrangements in biz class were messed up, separated us as a couple and bulkhead seating not good for long legs.
