On the 27th of February the first and only Icelandic low-fare airline, Iceland Express, can celebrate its’ four year anniversary. So far it’s been a breeze.
Inexpensive Excellency
The young and enterprising airline plays a pivotal role in the thriving tourism that Iceland has experienced in recent years. When Iceland Express introduced fares up to 80 % cheaper than competition, the extraordinary Nordic island came within mental and economical reach for a greater number of travellers.
Since Iceland Express first took off in 2003, the number of tourists visiting Iceland has grown by 16.5 %. In the same period the Icelanders’ frequency in travelling has increased by more than 35 %.
Express Expansion
With its uncompromising service and reliable flight schedule, the company has solidified its status on the market. Today Iceland Express has more than 300 000 passengers a year – more than the entire population of Island. And the company is ready for new challenges.
Starting summer 2007 Iceland Express will insure Reykjavik’s key position in Europe with the grand total of 13 destinations: Alicante, Basel, Berlin, Billund, Eindhoven, Frankfurt Hahn, Friderichshafen, Gothenburg, Copenhagen, London, Oslo, Paris and Stockholm.
