Years ago, I took Icelandair to Iceland. It was one of the best trips of my life. The rates were good, the service was direct, and I loved it so much. Lately, we've been victims of rising air travel prices, gouging over luggage and stuff; and recently American Airlines announced that they may give away your seat. Not good. And, by the way, American, give away my seat? That's just rude. I don't care if you think I can't make my connection. I made an impossible one last winter that you would have given my seat away on. Glad I was flying Delta.
At any rate, Play Airlines is the latest budget service to many countries, and it seems to be flying under the radar. I haven't had it come up on any of the big travel sites, even though they partner with Booking.com. They have some of the cheapest flights to Europe I've seen in decades, with a chance for stopovers in Iceland on almost all the trips. They are the latest in the class of "I want to go to Europe, but the prices are stupid."
Now, there's a catch like always. Will you have first class? Business class? No. They are a budget airline. Will you pay for luggage and carry ons? It depends on what service you book. Will you have to travel on certain days of the week for some trips? Yes. Is there food service? Yes, but for pay. You can bring your own snacks if you don't want to buy from the menu. But, if you aren't rich and want to head to Europe, just follow their guidelines and go. I don't really care about luxury. I can make time to travel. I'm just like Tom Brady on a Hertz commercial. I want to GO! And Play Airlines will get you there for cheap.
Take a look and don't overlook. They won't give away your seat either. Enjoy!
