Search flights from KEF to SFB
Reykjanes Peninsula
Dramatic volcanic landscapes and steam from geothermal sites visible immediately after takeoff.
Greenland Ice Sheet
Breathtaking views of the southern tip of Greenland, featuring glaciers, fjords, and ice-choked bays.
Maritime Canada
The dense forests and rocky inlets of Newfoundland and Nova Scotia's wild interior.
US Northeast Corridor
Distant views of the densely populated urban areas stretching from Boston toward the Mid-Atlantic.
St. Johns River
The wide, dark waters of Florida's longest river winding through the landscape during descent.
The right side is the Greenland side. Ensure you have a clear window seat for the first 2-3 hours of the flight to maximize your chances of seeing the Arctic ice. If flying during the winter, this side offers the best chance to see the Northern Lights during the initial leg.
