DL-UA-FI Washington IAD to Europe many $500s airfare deals

This post is a closer look at low fare routes to Europe from WAS airports. The fare war today looks to be concentrated in Washington, New York and Chicago. The low fares are primarily Delta/SkyTeam and United/Star Alliance, but Icelandair (airline code FI) is a surprising upstart. All the places where I am seeing low fares to Europe are also airports where Icelandair flies and their fares beat Delta and United by a few dollars on several routes. If low fare and adventure is your primary objective over miles, then Icelandair offers the opportunity for a free stopover in Iceland with your low fare ticket. Two checked bags fly free too and no fee for seat assignments.

Departure dates for legacy airlines are Sep 15-Dec 15.
