The Financial Post reports in its Tuesday edition that Vancouverites looking for low-cost flights to Iceland will soon have a new option when discount airline Wow Air adds a route out of the West Coast. A Canadian Press dispatch to the Post says that passengers will soon fly out of Vancouver International to Reykjavik, the island nation's capital, six days a week. The airline says one-way fares start at $129 for flights beginning in June, and are available for purchase as of today. Wow Air will now be battling bigger rival Icelandair for B.C. passengers, and is part of a broader trend of upstart budget carriers in Canada, including WestJet's ultralow-cost airline Swoop and Air Canada's Rouge. The airline, which already operates out of Toronto and Montreal, recently announced it will end service to three cities in the U.S. Midwest: Cincinnati, Cleveland and St. Louis. Wow Air says Reykjavik will also serve as a stopover for Canadian passengers en route to and from New Delhi, Tel Aviv and various European cities.
