Keflavik International Airport is making preparations for the extra flight schedules that will commence over the following summer months in time for the influx of travellers to Iceland. Airport staff has remained focused and positive throughout the past month after the airport was forced to close for a few days due to ash clouds from the volcanic eruption at Eyjafjallajokull.
The airport aims to continue its high standard of service after it was crowned as the ‘Best Airport in Europe’ by Airports Council International. Keflavik airport was highly commended for its overall passenger satisfaction in regards to courtesy and helpfulness of staff, connecting flights, atmosphere and cleanliness.
