PLAY, an Icelandic low-cost start-up carrier, is offering a discount of 25% on flights from the U.S. to Europe this summer and fall.

This sale ends on August 1, 2024, meaning you’ve got time to organize your plans.

Here’s what you need to know about these discounted fares and some more on the airline’s routes to the U.S.

Even Lower Fares to Europe

The 25% discount applies to select routes from Boston (BOS), Baltimore (BWI), Washington, D.C. (IAD), and Newburgh, New York (SWF) to Reykjavik (KEF) or onward to the following 6 European destinations:

  • Copenhagen (CPH)
  • Paris (CDG)
  • London (STN)
  • Amsterdam (AMS)
  • Berlin (BER)
  • Dublin (DUB)

The discounted fares apply to Sunday departures for direct flights to Iceland (KEF airport). For onward flights, discounts are available on Saturdays.

Discounts apply to round-trip bookings only. You can book at flyplay.com.

For example, you can fly round-trip from Boston (BOS) to Dublin (DUB) with just under a 2-hour connection in Iceland in each direction for just $301.96 round-trip.

While the bookings don’t specifically say that a 25% discount has been applied, we can reasonably assume that it has given just how low the fares are.

Just remember that PLAY is a low-cost airline, so prices increase as you add things like seat selection, checked bags, and other extras.

As we mentioned earlier, you have until August 1, 2024, to book your flights. And, unfortunately, there are blackout dates for the sale fares. The discount is valid for travel between now and December 15, 2024, and blackout dates only apply to connecting flights onward from Iceland. If your final destination is Iceland, you’ve got more options.

PLAY From the U.S. to Europe

PLAY is the newest low-cost airline offering inexpensive fares across the Atlantic via a quick and easy stop in Reykjavik, Iceland’s capital city.

The airline’s inaugural flight from Reykjavik to Baltimore to the U.S. took place on Wednesday, April 20, 2022. Now, the airline flies to 4 airports on the East Coast, as well as 1 in Canada (Toronto).

If the airline continues to see success with its current routes to the U.S., it’s likely we’ll see additional nonstop PLAY flights between Iceland and other gateways in the United States in the not-too-distant future.

Final Thoughts

Low-cost start-up carrier PLAY is offering a 25% discount on flights to 6 incredible European destinations, on top of flights to its home base in Iceland. With some fares around $300 round-trip, the only thing left to decide is where you’ll jet off to.
