BIKF is a freqently designated ETOPS alternate airport. Should it not be available due to volcanic activity, or weather for that matter, the NAT tracks would be repositioned further south so the LPLA would be the most likely designated alternate for that part of the flight. We are talking 120 minute ETOPS.
