How much is a flight from Akureyri to Reykjavik?

The cost of a flight from Akureyri 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 verify the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost on WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Akureyri to Reykjavik flight is often not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Akureyri to Reykjavik: how to pay less

Departure: Akureyri Airport (AEY)

Flights from Akureyri to Reykjavik leave from Akureyri Airport (AEY), serving Akureyri - akureyri is the capital of north Iceland at the head of a fjord, the base for Mývatn, Goðafoss and whale watching at Húsavík. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket.
