Pretty well most of the time I’m in a state of readiness to drop everything and fly to Iceland on a moment’s notice. While this is something that, in practice, rarely happens, it’s always good to have the information about Icelandair flights handy-by. So here’s the 2012 Halifax to Reykjavik direct flight schedule:

And here’s the schedule for flights back from Reykjavik to Halifax:

Fares are very reasonable right now: you can depart June 14 and return June 21 for $614 return, all taxes included.

It’s even cheaper — $544 return — if you leave September 10 and return September 17.

We visited Iceland last in the fall of 2008 — the week before the financial crisis hit, as it turns out — and it remains one of my favourite trips; it’s a place everyone should visit if they can.
