Icelandair will introduce a new US route between Reykjavik and St Louis in its summer 2027 schedule, and will relaunch flights to Madrid after a three-year gap.
The carrier plans to operate the Reykjavik-St Louis route from 14 May until 24 October 2027, by offering three to four flights per week.
The addition of St Louis as a destination will allow Icelandair to extend its existing partnership with Southwest Airlines, which uses the Missouri airport as one of its main hubs.
Icelandair will also restore its Reykjavik-Madrid route next summer with two to three flights per week from 9 April to 25 October 2027. The airline previously operated this route up to October 2024.
Tómas Ingason, Icelandair's chief commercial officer, said the new St Louis route would be “further strengthened by our growing partnership with Southwest Airlines”.
“Madrid is a popular destination that we're excited to welcome back to our network,” added Ingason in a statement. “These additions support the continued development of our route network and strengthen the range of options available to our customers.”
