WOW Air - Icelandic Low Cost Carrier

Although nothing has been announced from the airport yet, if you take a look on the WOW Air website it is showing Bristol as a new destination from May 2016.

The flights look as if they leave Bristol at 12:00 on Monday, Wednesday and Friday to Reykjavik (Keflavik) with onward connections to Boston, Montreal, Toronto and Washington (Baltimore).

They're showing flights to Reykjavik (Keflavik) from £39 and to Boston for £99 one way!!

It will only be WOW's second destination in the UK, the first one being London Gatwick.

This is an excellent addition to the BRS network, especially as it gives great low cost connections to the USA and Canada, with more destinations over the Atlantic to come.... the below was taken from the ch-aviation website from the 4th November.
WOW air (WW, Reykjavik Keflavik) has announced plans to source its first widebody aircraft needed for the upcoming launch of flights to the US West Coast.

Using three A330-300s, the Icelandic LCC plans to serve Los Angeles Int'l (4x weekly) and San Francisco, CA (5x weekly) from its Reykjavik Keflavik hub beginning summer of next year. The A330s will be configured with 340 seats in a single-class layout.

WOW air currently operates a fleet of three A320-200s and two A321-200 (sl)s on flights to both mainland Europe as well as Boston and Baltimore Thurgood Marshall in the United States. Toronto Pearson and Montréal Trudeau are expected to launch in May 2016.
