Icelandair will launch a weekly nonstop service from Akureyri to Tenerife on 19 October 2027. Flights will operate on Tuesdays until 18 April 2028.
The route will be Icelandair’s first scheduled international service from Akureyri. The airline has previously operated charter flights from the northern Icelandic airport, chief executive Bogi Nils Bogason said.
The service will give travellers in northern and eastern Iceland a direct link to the Canary Islands without having to travel via Keflavík.
