Icelandair and low-cost carrier Play were among carriers forced to cancel flights on Tuesday morning (20 December), after the country’s Keflavik airport was impacted by strong winds and icy conditions.
Icelandair’s day flights to Tenerife, Las Palmas and Boston have also been delayed. "We are still experiencing major road closure which is causing disruption to our operations," a spokesperson added.
"We will resolve any issues as fast as we can, but rebooking flights is taking longer than usual due to the volume of requests."
