Baggage, seats and classes on the Vancouver to Reykjavik flight

Before you compare the Vancouver to Reykjavik flight prices, compare what they carry. A fare with hand luggage only can look cheapest and end up dearer once a bag is added. Haqqi Tours offers the fare that matches your bags: cabin bag only for a short trip, checked bag for a holiday, extra allowance for a long stay. Seat selection, meals and priority boarding are optional extras on many airlines; we tell you which are worth it.

  • Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
  • Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request
  • Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
  • Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request

Flying with children, families and groups from Vancouver to Reykjavik

Families fly the Vancouver to Reykjavik route with us all year round. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the airline offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the carrier for a group fare where the numbers justify it.

Things to do in Reykjavik when you land

Reykjavik is the capital of Iceland and the world's northernmost capital, a small colourful city by the harbour with Keflavik International (KEF) about 50 km south-west across the lava fields; the Blue Lagoon lies on the road between them, and the Golden Circle, the south coast and Vik begin at the city's edge. Start with Perlan and its glacier exhibition, Hallgrímskirkja church and the Blue Lagoon, then Sky Lagoon and the Golden Circle: Þingvellir, Geysir and Gullfoss. A tip from our desk: Many guests stop at the Blue Lagoon on the way in or out - book the lagoon time first, then let us know, and the transfer is planned around it; for Vik, allow a day, not a transfer.

Haqqi Tours arranges guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Reykjavik; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.

Best time to fly from Vancouver to Reykjavik

Flights from Vancouver to Reykjavik run all year, several a week. June to August has the midnight sun and the busiest roads; September to March brings the northern lights, short days and winter driving on the Reykjanes road - flights are tracked and drivers are used to the weather. If you can travel outside those weeks the same seat costs less and the airports are quieter. Whatever the month, early booking is the single biggest saving.

Return flight from Reykjavik to Vancouver

We book the return leg from Reykjavik to Vancouver just as easily, normally on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much is a flight from Vancouver to Reykjavik?

The cost of a flight from Vancouver to Reykjavik depends on the date, the time of day, the airline, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we look up the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost through WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the e-ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.

Cheapest flight from Vancouver to Reykjavik: how to pay less

A cheap Vancouver to Reykjavik flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we check for you:

  • Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares
  • Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
  • Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
  • Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
  • Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we verify
  • Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more

When you fill in the form, mention if you can move your dates. We scan the fares around them and send the cheapest Vancouver to Reykjavik flight first, then the alternatives.

How to book flights from Vancouver to Reykjavik with Haqqi Tours

The easiest way to book a flight from Vancouver to Reykjavik is to let a person do it. The form asks for the essentials; the details - a window seat, an infant, extra baggage, a wheelchair, a special meal - you tell us in the WhatsApp chat when we message you to confirm. We provide the ticket in your name, remind you of the check-in rules of that airline and stay reachable while you travel.

  • Step 1 - complete the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
  • Step 2 - we message you on WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost
  • Step 3 - you confirm the flight you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat
  • Step 4 - we issue the e-ticket and send it; we stay in touch until you land in Reykjavik

Because a person books it, we can do what a booking site does not: seat a family together, choose the fare with the right bag, add an infant correctly, line up the Vancouver to Reykjavik flight with a transfer from your accommodation to Vancouver International Airport (YVR) and a driver waiting at Reykjavik Keflavik (KEF).

Airlines flying from Vancouver to Reykjavik

Who flies from Vancouver to Reykjavik? Icelandair. Between them the route runs several a week. We compare their fares, timings and baggage for your travel date and send the two or three that make sense, not a list of fifty.

Departure: Vancouver International Airport (YVR)

Your journey starts at Vancouver International Airport (YVR). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. The Canada Line SkyTrain runs from the airport to downtown in about 25 minutes and is the best option with a cabin bag and a hotel near a station; a private car is simpler with luggage, a cruise departure from Canada Place, the ferry terminals, Whistler or the North Shore.

  • Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
  • Haqqi Tours can provide a private transfer from your hotel in Vancouver to Vancouver International Airport
  • Ask us about the terminal and fast-track options at Vancouver International Airport
  • Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one

Arrival: Reykjavik Keflavik (KEF) and getting into Reykjavik

The flight lands at Reykjavik Keflavik (KEF). Reykjavik is the capital of Iceland and the world's northernmost capital, a small colourful city by the harbour with Keflavik International (KEF) about 50 km south-west across the lava fields; the Blue Lagoon lies on the road between them, and the Golden Circle, the south coast and Vik begin at the city's edge. From arrivals you have taxis, public transport and, if you book it with us, a Haqqi Tours driver waiting with your name. For a family with bags, a pre-booked airport transfer is the easiest way to finish the Vancouver to Reykjavik journey: fixed price, flight tracked, straight to the hotel door.

Many passengers continue from Reykjavik to somewhere else. We provide those tickets too, so one WhatsApp conversation covers the whole itinerary.

Generally yes - free at check-in on most airlines, or for a small charge at booking. Say what you prefer when we message you and we add it.

How early should I be at Vancouver International Airport?

About two hours before an international flight and ninety minutes before a domestic one; more at peak times or if you have bags to check. Low-cost airlines close bag drop strictly on time.

What if my flight is delayed or cancelled?

The airline rebooks you and, depending on the rules that apply, may owe assistance or compensation; our WhatsApp desk helps you through it. If you have a transfer booked with us the driver tracks the flight.

You land at Reykjavik Keflavik (KEF). Taxis and metro, tram or bus leave from arrivals; a Haqqi Tours driver can meet you at the exit with your name if you add a transfer.

What is the difference between economy and business class?

Business class means a much larger seat, a meal, lounge access, priority boarding and normally a more flexible ticket; economy is the practical choice for a 7 hours 30 minutes flight. We send the cost of both.
