Icelandair Business Class Fares for Summer
Following fares are available on several dates between May-August 2018, I searched using google flights.
- Toronto – Helsinki: ~$2300 CAD (~$1800 USD)
- Toronto – Copenhagen/Oslo/Stockholm/Amsterdam: ~$2500 CAD (~$2000 USD)
Icelandair Business Class cabin is equipped with standard reclining chairs and not lie-flat beds. However, that each leg is under 5 hours and also offers free stopover in Iceland with up to 375% in bonus miles, is more than a convincing factor.
Additional Perks
Icelandair allows up to 7 night layover in Reykjavik, Iceland at no additional cost. They also run a unique Stopover Buddy Service that allows travellers to explore the country with a local, at no additional cost.

That is correct. Even without elite status you will earn 250% bonus on miles flown, which is incredible. Add a AS card and you are good for another one way business class to EU 🙂 Whats your destination for the Iceland flight?
We’re actually based in the NYC area, so we were kicking around a visit to Toronto to kick off the trip and then for destination, we have only been to Oslo, but in Winter, so ARN or HEL or even a revisit to Oslo in a warmer month would be fun. Also, we visited KEF years back and it snowed from the moment we got off the plane until we left so another visit there with better weather would be great also.
Toronto itself is an amazing destination for summer. That you can head off to Kef or hel in business class thereon is just added perk! 🙂 thanks for sharing and happy travels! Do share your experience once you are back – cheers!
