easyJet: Reykjavik (Keflavik) and Marrakech

This would be the first regular route to Iceland from BRS, scheduled or charter. Like Marrakech, I suspect it will be predominantly leisure traffic and Iceland has the reputation of being a relatively expensive tourist destination. The demographics of the BRS catchment may have encouraged the airline to start this route.

Marrakech was operated year-round by Ryanair between 2009 and 2011 with decent loads for the most part although in the end that airline presumably decided the yield did not justify a continuation. Thomson is also advertising a new Marrakech summer service in 2014.
