The carrier will begin four flights a week from Glasgow International to Iceland’s main Keflavik airport on 26 May, marking the airline’s first Scottish route. Play will go head-to-head with Icelandair, which flies five times a week from Glasgow.

Play’s Iceland fares lead in at £69 one way. It will also offer connections to New York’s Stewart airport, Boston, Baltimore/Washington and Washington Dulles from £169 one way. A connection to Toronto will start in June.


Play will operate from Glasgow this summer on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, but the Wednesday frequency will cease in the autumn.

The airline uses Airbus A320neo aircraft with 180 seats.
