Return flight from London to Reykjavik

How much is a flight from Reykjavik to London?

The cost of a flight from Reykjavik to London depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, 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 on WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

Let us know for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.

Cheapest flight from Reykjavik to London: how to pay less

A cheap Reykjavik to London 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:

• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are normally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• 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

Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Reykjavik to London that day and what a slightly different day would cost.

You choose, we book, and the e-ticket arrives in the same chat.

Airlines flying from Reykjavik to London

On the flight from Reykjavik to London you can choose between Icelandair, PLAY, easyJet and British Airways. A full-service airline generally includes a checked bag, a meal and a flexible ticket; a low-cost fare is cheaper at the start and adds those items one by one. We provide both and tell you the total for the way you actually travel.

• Icelandair - Reykjavik to London
• PLAY - Reykjavik to London
• easyJet - Reykjavik to London
• British Airways - Reykjavik to London

Departure: Keflavík International Airport (KEF)

Your journey starts at Keflavík International Airport (KEF). 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. Flybus and Airport Direct coaches run from Keflavik to the BSÍ terminal and, with a change, to hotels; there is no rail. With luggage, a late flight, a Blue Lagoon stop or the drive to Vik, a private car is the simpler choice and the usual one.

• Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
• Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
• Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the electronic ticket - names must match exactly
• Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book

Arrival: London Heathrow, Gatwick or Stansted (LHR / LGW / STN) and getting into London

You arrive at London Heathrow, Gatwick or Stansted (LHR / LGW / STN). The Elizabeth line and Heathrow Express, the Gatwick Express, the Stansted Express and the Luton train are all fast to a central station; from there the Tube with suitcases means stairs, gaps and crowds, and Wembley, Windsor or an Oxford Street hotel each add a change, which is why families and groups book a car from the terminal door. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your hotel in London, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.

Arriving late at night? We note it and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the flight; a delay costs you nothing.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Reykjavik to London flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Reykjavik to London. Full-service fares typically include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• 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
• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy

Flying with children, families and groups from Reykjavik to London

Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.

Things to do in London when you land

London is served by more airports than any city in the world: Heathrow (LHR) about 25 km west of the centre, Gatwick (LGW) about 45 km south, Stansted (STN) about 60 km north-east, Luton (LTN) about 55 km north and London City close to Canary Wharf; the West End, the City, Westminster and Kensington form the centre, with Windsor, Oxford and Cambridge within reach by road. Start with Windsor Castle, Oxford Street and Regent Street and Buckingham Palace and the Changing of the Guard, then the Tower of London and Tower Bridge and the British Museum. A tip from our desk: Tell us which airport and terminal - Heathrow alone has four in use - and the hotel's full postcode; London hotel names repeat across the city and the postcode sends the driver straight to the right street.

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

Best time to fly from Reykjavik to London

Flights from Reykjavik to London run all year, 10+ a day. London is busy all year, with summer, the Christmas lights and the January sales at the peak; the M4 from Heathrow, the M23 from Gatwick and the M1 from Luton are slowest at weekday rush hours, and a Sunday evening back into town. 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.
