Last update: 4 hours ago

Air Travel Boost: Alaska Airlines has launched nonstop service to Reykjavík from Seattle (from May 28), giving more direct options for Iceland trips without switching airlines. EU Referendum Watch: Iceland’s National Electoral Commission is gearing up for an EU membership negotiations referendum on 29 August, with neutral voter information materials being prepared for a tight summer schedule. Tourism Cost Pressure: Iceland has overtaken Switzerland to become the world’s most expensive country, driven largely by tourism recovery pushing up services, wages, and especially rents tied to short-term rentals. Aviation Milestone: airBaltic marks 10 years of its Reykjavík–Riga route, highlighting growing demand and Iceland’s role as a convenient transit hub. Culture & Film: Skjaldborg Documentary Film Festival (Westfjords) wrapped up with Audience Award and Best Short wins, plus a Work-in-Progress showcase featuring Icelandic and Greenlandic filmmakers. Travel Inspiration: Icelandair’s “really bad photographer” contest is underway, with a finalist from Singapore set to compete for an all-expenses trip to Iceland.
