Nonstop service to Reykjavik, Iceland to take flight for the first time since March 2020

DENVER – May 24, 2021 – Denver International Airport (DEN) celebrated the return of Icelandair on Sunday after a 14month suspension due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Flights are scheduled to operate on a Boeing 757-200 four times per week and increase to five times per week mid-June.

“Icelandair’s return not only signals the resurgence of international travel but also the importance of Denver and Colorado as a partner in building back a global network,” said DEN CEO Kim Day. “We appreciate Icelandair’s continued commitment to DEN and look forward to working together as we safely welcome back more and more travelers.”

Icelandair began service at DEN in May 2012 and just celebrated their ninth anniversary on May 11, 2021. Prior to the pandemic, Reykjavik ranked among Denver’s top 10 markets in Europe for travel demand. In recent years Icelandair consistently carried nearly 10 percent of Denver-Europe passengers and provided convenient connections to many European destinations such as Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm.

“Iceland has recently opened its borders to all U.S. vaccinated travelers and Icelandair is excited to return to Denver with nonstop flights to Iceland starting today, May 24, 2021. As we approach nearly a decade of service from the Mile High City, we appreciate all of the support we have received over the years and we look forward to continue building a bright future together. The past year was a difficult time for many people and travel was affected greatly,” said Grimur Gislason, Regional Manager – Icelandair North America. “Now, with brighter days ahead, Iceland is just around the corner and we look forward to welcoming Denver aboard, once again.”

Icelandair joins Lufthansa and United in offering nonstop service between Denver and Europe since the COVID-19 pandemic halted all international flights from DEN on April 1, 2020. Iceland is welcoming all travelers that are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or can show a certificate of previous infection. Further travel from Iceland to the rest of Europe is currently not permitted for U.S. residents. As borders reopen, DEN anticipates pent-up international travel demand to increase over the course of the summer.
