PLAY to offer flights to Frankfurt from Hamilton airport

Canadian travellers can fly on the first PLAY flight to Frankfurt on December 14

PLAY, a low-cost airline operating flights between Iceland and Europe, has launched ticket sales for flights to Frankfurt in Germany. The first flight with PLAY to Frankfurt will be on December 14, and it will operate four to five times a week throughout the winter.

As a transatlantic carrier between Europe and North America, PLAY operates from its hub at Keflavik Airport in Iceland, perfectly positioned between the two continents.

To celebrate the first flight with PLAY to Frankfurt, the airline has announced a limited-time flight sale, starting from as low as $259 exclusive of taxes and fees. The sale started on July 27, 2023 and ends at 11:59 p.m. EST on August 10, 2023. Canadians will be able to book the discounted fare for travel dates between January to March 2024.

“We are delighted to be able to add more destinations to our transatlantic route network at a time when demand in North America for flights to Europe is high,” said Birgir Jónsson, CEO, PLAY. “Revenues from passengers coming from North America are much higher than before, making it a great time to add Frankfurt as a destination. With ten aircraft in our fleet, which is now the youngest and most modern fleet in Europe, we are in a great position to expand our route network and to keep offering competitive prices to passengers.”

“The addition of Frankfurt to PLAY’s extensive network of European destinations is exciting for Hamilton International, it not only strengthens business ties between our regions, but also enhances tourism opportunities for travellers seeking a seamless connection into Germany via Iceland,” said Cole Horncastle, Executive Managing Director, John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport.
