The when, where and how of flights to Reykjavik

Iceland is the land of midnight sun and shimmering winter skies, of volcano-filled moonscapes and wild coastline. The gateway to this magically remote North Atlantic jewel is the country’s small but vibrant capital, Reykjavik. Many of the nation’s historical and cultural highlights are here, including the National and Saga museums, where you can discover the country’s fascinating Viking past. This hidden northern gem has never been more accessible with flights to Reykjavik available from all over the UK.

When’s the best time to book flights to Reykjavik?

The world’s most northerly capital may be a relatively compact city, but Reykjavik has a huge variety of awe-inspiring attractions no matter what time of year you visit. The summer months bring with them incredibly long hours of daylight and this is the most popular time to visit, with plenty of hip music festivals drawing crowds from across Europe. Things are a little quieter come autumn and early winter and this is the best time to find cheap tickets to Reykjavik. The traditional rounding up of the island’s sheep takes place in autumn, and the long winter nights are prime time to catch a glimpse of the spellbinding Northern Lights.

Where can I fly to Reykjavik from?

Iceland’s rugged northern beauty and smouldering volcanos are attracting more and more tourists every year.

Reykjavík When to Go

If you want to dance under the midnight sun, summer is the time to visit Reykjavík — that’s when the majority of people descend upon this relatively compact city, the jumping-off point for all the country’s attractions. Don’t miss a tour of the Golden Circle, which will take you to Þingvellir, site of the founding of Iceland’s parliament around 930 and the spot between the tectonic plates of North America and Eurasia; Gullfoss, a spectacular waterfall; and big geysers Geysir and Strokkur. Even though it’s considered summer, temperatures still average in the low to mid-40s in June, July, and August.

During the spring and fall, you’ll get a more normal distribution of light and not nearly as many tourists. It’s quiet during these times, but one event worth putting on your list is the fall sheep roundup, or réttir, an important time for farmers and a buoyant weekend for everyone, with horseback riding, sing-alongs, and plenty of revelry. From April to May and then again in September and October, temps linger in the 40s.   

Winter in Iceland isn’t as cold as you might imagine a country with “ice” in its name to be, with temperatures typically in the 30s. It is dark most of the day, but cheaper prices and a good shot at seeing the northern lights can make it a worthwhile time to visit, especially for winter sports enthusiasts. If you find the lack of sunlight depressing, do as the locals do and participate in rúntur, Reykjavík’s version of a weekend pub crawl. Nightlife is taken quite seriously in the city, and with rock clubs to upscale pubs to sports bars, there are plenty of places to visit all night long. (A word of warning, though, alcohol here is not cheap.) Cap off the night with a visit to Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur, a famous hot dog stand downtown where the likes of Bill Clinton have noshed on the popular Icelandic food.
