WOW air, Iceland's only low-cost airline, is celebrating its 2nd birthday with a special gift for its valued passengers.
From 3-16 June, a total of 1,000 tickets priced at £49 per person each way will go on sale at www.wowair.co.uk, meaning passengers can fly direct to Reykjavik from London Gatwick for as little as £98 return*.
Customers will be able to fly to Iceland's capital with this offer at a time of their choosing from 3 June to 31 October 2014. With only a limited number of discounted tickets on offer, holidaymakers will need to book quickly so they don't miss out!
There are many reasons to visit the land of fire and ice this summer. Those opting for a city break in Reykjavik in August can enjoy Culture Night, the pinnacle of the Icelandic cultural calendar, which offers art exhibitions, concerts, film screenings, Icelandic dance performances, fairs and a spectacular midnight fireworks show by the harbour, as well as the glittering Reykjavik Pride Festival; a six-day celebration of fun and freedom.
What's more, Iceland's gloriously long summer days allow plenty of time to awe at the country's breath-taking scenery which can be enjoyed on a classic Golden Circle tour, with a spot of snorkelling in the crystal clear waters of the Silfra fissure in Þingvellir national park or horseback riding in the lava fields surrounding Mt. Helgafell volcano, all just a three-hour flight away.
WOW air flies daily from London Gatwick to Reykjavik with twice-daily departures on Monday, Thursday and Sunday.
