One of the most fun and exciting ways to visit Iceland and see its natural wonders, beautiful landscapes, and unique landmarks, is by air travel. However, airfare can be expensive, especially if you don’t know how to find low-cost round-trip flights to and from Iceland. But it doesn’t have to be that way. With some research and planning, you can easily secure affordable airfare when you plan your visit. Here are 7 tips for scoring low-cost airline deals to Iceland.

1) Research

Before booking a flight to any foreign country, be sure to do some research first. Look up average weather conditions, typical accommodations, and transportation costs. The more you know ahead of time, the better prepared you’ll be when visiting a new country. For example, if you live in an area that is always hot and humid throughout summer, you might want to think twice about traveling to a place with extremely cold winters—it may be unpleasant and expensive if it means having to stay indoors most of your trip.

2) Start As Early As Possible

The best deals on flights to Iceland tend to go fast, especially around Christmas and New Year’s. If you want a cheap flight, start planning as early as possible—and keep checking back if you see a price that’s not to your liking.

3) Keep Up With The Opportunities

Opportunities arise year-round and can be found on most major websites. Usually, you’ll have to register with a site and answer a few questions, but that’s usually all it takes. The opportunities are endless—visit sites like Groupon, Goldstar, Outdoors Classifieds Forum, Craigslist, and more to keep up with what’s out there.

4) Book Directly With Airlines

It’s always worth checking what deals airlines are offering directly. Many times, there are significant savings to be had by booking a flight directly with an airline rather than through a travel agent or another 3rd party site like Expedia or Orbitz. You can find great deals on flights using sites like Skyscanner and Momondo, too. These search engines both offer price alerts that will notify you when prices drop for your route of choice.

5) Be Flexible In Flight Times

Plan to depart and return on different days than you initially thought. During the off-peak season (winter), it’s easier to find a good deal. But also keep in mind that some airlines offer deals during peak season as well, even though they will be more expensive. This flexibility helps ensure you get a low-cost flight with no stops and minimal layovers.

6) Use Points Or Miles

The next time you’re looking to book a flight, it might make sense to consider using your credit card points or miles instead of cash. Some cards offer significant value for each point earned, allowing you to spend them on flights that can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Just be sure you understand how to use your card wisely so you don’t fall behind on your payments.

7) Use Cashback Websites for Added Savings

Flying from New York to Reykjavik can set you back a lot of money, but there are tricks that can help you cut down on costs. Reward websites such as Ebates and Mr. Rebates offer cash back on purchases made through their sites, so you can use them to save money on airfare as well as hotels and car rentals in Iceland. These sites make it easy to search for and purchase your tickets at discount prices, saving you more money than if you booked directly with an airline or travel agency.
