We’re proud to expand PLAY´s service to the United States with services to and from Boston and Baltimore/Washington, D.C. offering both American and European travellers a new way to reach iconic destinations. With our reliable and affordable flights, travellers can better enjoy their destination rather than overspending on the flight to get there,” say’s Birgir Jónsson, PLAY’s CEO.
