Customers from Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) International Airport will have new non-stop access to Reykjavik, Iceland, when WOW air begins service in May 2018. WOW air will serve the route three times per week on a seasonal basis, utilizing Airbus A330 aircraft. The new destinations comes only two weeks after WOW air’s announcement to launch Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW), Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE), Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) and St. Louis Lambert International Airport (STL).

“We’re pleased to welcome WOW air to Dallas Fort Worth and look forward to providing our customers with another non-stop trans-Atlantic destination,” said Sean Donohue, CEO for DFW Airport. “Reykjavik is a popular tourist destination, a growing market for international business and a convenient connecting point to continental Europe. We look forward to giving visitors from Iceland a warm Texas welcome when they arrive next year.”

“WOW air is thrilled to bring our low-fare, transatlantic flight service to Dallas Fort Worth in May 2018,” said Skúli Mogensen, CEO and Founder of WOW air. “Dallas Fort Worth is a world-class region and we can’t wait to give European travelers the opportunity to experience all that Texas has to offer.”
