Icelandair Oslo to Denver $335 round trip, Chicago $356 Oct-Nov and free stopover in Iceland

Icelandair has a very low round trip fare from Oslo to Denver or Chicago for departures in October and November with a free stopover allowed in Reykjavik in each direction for up to seven days.

Big advantages of Icelandair over Norwegian and WOW are two checked bags or two carry-on bags fly free and a free stopover in Iceland is allowed.

Here is an example of the kind of crazy itineraries I fly to see more cities and make multiple trips to Europe for cheap.

This post shows how a person starting in Denver can go to Scandinavia on two separate trips, visit Stockholm, Oslo and Iceland for around $1,000 in airfare.

Total airfare is $1,019 for two trips from Denver to Stockholm, Oslo, Iceland and San Francisco.

There are all kinds of possibilities with these low Icelandair fares. I picked random dates and did not try to set up an ideal itinerary. The total fare can probably be reduced down to $800 if you are in Chicago.

Bottom line is Icelandair Oslo – Denver or Chicago for around $370 round trip with free stopovers in Iceland opens up lots of possibilities for low cost multiple trips to Europe.
