Icelandair starts Portland flights

ICELANDAIR is to start scheduled flights in May from Reykjavik to Portland, Oregon, with easy connections from five UK airports. 

‘We are delighted to begin flights to our newest gateway Portland, to which all our flights from five UK airports will connect in Reykjavik,’ says Andres Jonsson, general manager of Icelandair UK. ‘Our flight to Portland will be the quickest and most convenient way to travel there from the UK. Our passengers can also opt to have an additional stop-over in Iceland en route for up to a week for no additional airfare, to extend their holiday experience.’

Icelandair has daily flights from London Heathrow and regular flights from Gatwick, Birmingham, Manchester, and Glasgow airports to Reykjavik that connect to 14 onward North American flights.

‘Oregon is famous for its scenic splendor, award-winning wine and tax-free shopping,’ said Todd Davidson at Travel Oregon. ‘We look forward to welcoming more European visitors with Icelandair’s convenient non-stop flight from Reykjavik. Our diverse landscapes –340 miles of open coastline, mountains, valleys, desert – and exciting urban centres and quaint small towns – will create rewarding, lasting memories for anyone who visits.’
