No year-round Icelandair from Halifax

Icelandair cuts winter flights, reports Nova Scotia Business Journal. What was supposed to be year-round flights from Halifax to Keflavik will now be suspended for the winter, with the last flight for this year on October 20, 2008.

This is really too bad: Icelandair is a much better alternative to Air Canada for getting to Europe, if only because Keflavik is so much better a hub than Heathrow or Frankfurt.

Fortunately for any Europeans coming to Zap Your PRAM, the October shutdown date comes the day after Zap closes.

I was told that Icelandair is now flying from Halifax, NS to Frankfurt, Germany. I should like information about this. I wish to depart March 30, 2010 from Halifax and leave Frankfurt on April l3, 2010 approximately. I do not mind stopping at Reykjavik. I should like info about fares etc.
Many thanks, Mary Brownless.
