Commenting on the sale Skúli Mogensen, CEO of WOW air, said: "We are really excited to celebrate our fifth anniversary this year. We are delighted to share our great success with our Irish passengers by offering the best prices ever seen for travel across the Atlantic. This is a great opportunity to take a weekend break or tick a bucket list destination off the list.

"Since launching almost two years ago, we are pleased with the success of our Irish routes with many Irish passengers visiting Iceland and connecting to the US through Reykjavik. Equally, both Dublin and Cork have also become popular destinations for the Icelandic with many taking weekend breaks in Ireland," he added.

WOW Air flies between Dublin and Reykjavik five times per week, and daily in peak summer times, and Cork to Reykjavik three times a week, increasing to four flights a week during peak summer times.
