In addition to the airline’s base in Reykjavik (KEF), where all mainland Europe-bound passengers will transit, the $2 kid fares are also available to the following 6 airports:

Amsterdam (AMS)
Copenhagen (CPH)
Dublin (DUB)
Liverpool (LPL)
London (STN)
Paris (CDG)

If you want to make the most of this offer, you must travel during specific timeframes. Here are the eligible dates for this sale:

January 8-March 31, 2025 (from Baltimore)
October 22-October 27, October 29, and November 12-December 15, 2024, plus January 8-March 31, 2025 (from Boston and New York)

Discounts apply to round-trip bookings only, and you can book your flights at flyplay.com by October 16, 2024

Remember, flying ultra-low-cost airlines like PLAY means you’ll have to pay extra for things like seat selection, checked bags, and inflight food and beverages, so make sure to factor that into your plans when budgeting for the trip.

Best Ways To Book PLAY’s 20% Off Fares

These 20% off fares are only available when booking directly with PLAY.

That means you’ll have to pay online using a credit card. In such cases, we recommend using a travel rewards credit card such as the Chase Sapphire Reserve^®. The card earns 3x points on general travel (after using the card’s annual $300 travel credit) and up to 10x points when booking trips through the Chase Travel portal.

Hot Tip:

If relaxing in a lounge before a flight is your thing, then you might consider The Platinum Card^® from American Express. As well as all the all-important perk of earning points, this card comes with an unlimited Priority Pass membership, giving you complimentary access to over 1,400 lounges around the world upon enrollment— even when you’re flying low-cost airlines like PLAY!

Final Thoughts

PLAY’s discount fares to Europe are certainly worth considering if you’re looking for a European winter getaway and don’t want to splurge on flights with a full-service airline.

But what will tempt you most: stroopwafels in Amsterdam, sausages in Berlin, or cheeky pints of Guinness in Dublin?
