Airline and stopovers
Ryanair is the airline on this route. The flight includes one stopover, so it's not a direct flight. Bear in mind the total travel time: the stopover adds hours, but the savings are substantial. Ryanair departs from Rome Fiumicino (FCO) and arrives at Keflavík (KEF), Iceland's main international airport.
Best time to visit Iceland
Travel season affects price. Summer months (June to August) tend to be pricier as it's peak season. For the best value, consider spring (April-May) or autumn (September-October), when you get better price and weather balance. Winter is cheaper but daylight hours are very short and conditions more severe.
What to do when you arrive in Iceland
You'll land at Keflavík, about 50 km from Reykjavík. The capital and surroundings have plenty to offer: the Blue Lagoon is unmissable, the northern fjords are stunning, and you'll find waterfalls, glaciers and sea cliffs. If you travel in winter, hunt for the Northern Lights. Rent a car to explore the Ring Road. Iceland is expensive, so eat at supermarkets when you can.
