Icelandair's new Economy Light Fare

Icelandair has introduced a new Economy Light Fare for people who only carry on.

Icelandiar Economy Light

With this fare you can bring a carry on up to 10 kg and reserve your seats in advance.

Checking a bag will not be allowed. And anyway, extra checked baggage charges for Icelandair are as high as $95 each way for flights from North America to Europe (excluding flights to Iceland alone where the cost is $69.)

This move by Icelandair will heat up the transatlantic fare wars currently being won by WOW and Norwegian airlines.

Aer Lingus has also introduced a carry-on only fare with meals but no advance seat assignments. Fares are as low as $399 from the east coast.
