New flights to Canada YHM via Iceland

New low-cost carrier from Iceland Play will be doing flights from Stansted and Liverpool to Hamilton Toronto YHM (90 minutes drive from Toronto)

5 flights a week from June 22 from Stansted, and 2 flights a week from Liverpool -- all go via a KEF Reykjavik stop. Snack/Drinks are BoB
You can connect there and go on to BOS BWI IAD and also to New York, SWF, Stewart International Airport, 60 miles north of Manhattan.

Play's initial fleet consisted of three Airbus A321neo aircraft, all of which were formerly operated by defunct Mexican airline Interjet.
In September 2021, the airline announced its first fleet expansion with orders for three Airbus A320neos and a fourth A321N for early 2023.
The airline also signed a letter of intent in August to receive two more A320neos.
Play specified that an Airbus A321neo it was due to receive in anticipation of its recently announced Orlando route would be the A321NX/LR variant, for delivery during May 2022.
Play decided to delay delivery of it and cancel the planned Orlando MCO route due to rising fuel costs.
The airline instead replaced the A321LR with an A320neo, thereby planning to operate a fleet of five A320neos and three A321neos for summer 2023, the airline's A321neos began seating reconfigurations to increase their capacity from 192 to 214.
