Here are answers to questions we often receive:

  • You’ll receive a 20% discount on airport prices up until 7 days prior to departure. If you bought your ticket before June 5, the discounted price is valid until 4 hours before departure.
  • Excess baggage fees are non-refundable.
  • Heavy bags can only be paid for at the airport.
  • Extra bags for connecting flights with other airlines must be purchased at the airport.
  • When traveling with a Stopover in Iceland, excess baggage fees are applied per flight leg.
  • A maximum of three additional checked bags may be purchased in advance with the discount applied. If you wish to travel with more checked bags (the maximum per passenger is 10 checked bags), they must be purchased at the airport at full price. If you need to travel with more than 10 checked bags, we recommend contacting Icelandair Cargo.
  • It's not possible to travel with baggage heavier than 70 lbs (32 kg), or odd-sized baggage over a certain size.
  • See terms and conditions on Pre-purchased extra baggage.

Sports equipment

If you bought your ticket before June 5, the discounted price is valid until 4 hours before departure. The only exception is hunting gear, which can only be paid for at the airport check-in.

Musical instruments

The size and weight of a musical instrument will determine whether it can be carried on as hand baggage or whether it should be checked in.
