Package breaks include a guided Northern Lights tour and opportunities to see Iceland’s capital Reykjavik, as well as excursions to the Golden Circle, famed for its waterfalls and geysers, and the Blue Lagoon.

All package options include 22kg hold luggage, airport transfers and a choice of three and four-star accommodation in central Reykjavik.

Steve Heapy, Jet2.com and Jet2holidays chief executive, said: “Iceland is a destination rapidly growing in popularity thanks to its abundance of natural wonders, such as the Northern Lights, Golden Circle and Blue Lagoon.

“As well as geothermal spas, geysers, natural parks and the incredible Aurora Borealis, Iceland also offers the ultimate city break destination in stylish Reykjavik, which is the world’s northernmost capital.

“This programme of dedicated trips to Iceland allows independent travel agents to offer even more choice for winter 2019. The beauty of Iceland, coupled with the fantastic benefits available through Jet2.com and Jet2CityBreaks, means we are confident of a very successful programme.”
