Flying from Manchester
Manchester is the UK's third-largest airport and the dominant Northern hub for both short-haul and long-haul. The airport's three terminals serve a deep mix of full-service carriers (BA, Lufthansa, KLM), low-cost operators (Jet2, easyJet, Ryanair) and intercontinental long-haul (Emirates, Qatar, Singapore, Virgin Atlantic). Northern travellers usually save 90+ minutes versus heading down to Heathrow or Gatwick — and on European routes Manchester fares are competitive with the London airports.
Arriving in Reykjavik
Keflavík sits 50 km southwest of Reykjavík, with Flybus shuttles running every 30 minutes to BSÍ bus terminal for ISK 3,499. Icelandair and Play (low-cost) dominate the route, with EasyJet adding seasonal capacity. The route is a stopover-friendly Atlantic gateway — many travellers use it for 1–4 night layovers en route to North America.
