When it comes to crossing the Atlantic, you’ll be hard-pressed to find cheaper fares than with PLAY Airlines — the Icelandic ultra-low-cost carrier.

This time we’ve found nonstop round-trip fares to Europe from just $241!

Let’s take a look at some options and how you can book them for yourself.

Europe Flight Deal — Details

PLAY Airlines operates a robust network between the U.S. and Europe via connections at its hub at Iceland’s Reykjavik (KEF) airport.

The airline also serves smaller regional airports, like New York’s Stewart (SWF) and Baltimore (BWI), from where you’ll find some of the great fares in this deal.

The lowest fares are available from October to December 2024, with some slightly more expensive options in the first few months of 2025.

Class: Economy
Routes: Baltimore (BWI), Boston (BOS), New York-Stewart (SWF), and Washington D.C. (IAD) to Copenhagen (CPH), Dublin (DUB), Reykjavik (KEF), Paris (CDG), and more
Dates: October 2024 to March 2025
Rates: From $241 round-trip

The cheapest fare we found is Baltimore to Reykjavik at just $241:

Creeping into the low $300s is this round-trip to Dublin from New York’s Stewart:

And for $10 more, you can fly from Washington, D.C., to Paris round-trip:

Hot Tip:

Remember: booking ultra-low fares with airlines like PLAY mean that you’ll have to pay extra for things like choosing a seat, in-flight food and drinks, and even taking hand-luggage onboard. Here’s everything you need to know about flying PLAY.

Best Ways To Book

Given the nature of PLAY’s low-cost business model, the airline doesn’t give passengers the option of using points to pay for tickets.

In this case, we recommend using a credit card that will reward you for spending on travel, such as The Platinum Card^® from American Express.

Paying for these flights with PLAY with this card would earn you 5x Membership Rewards points per $1 spent on flights when booked directly with the airline or through AmexTravel.com (limit of $500,000 per year, then 1x).

An alternative option would be the Chase Sapphire Reserve^® — a card you’ll find in most of our wallets here at Upgraded Points.
