Oneworld to KEF?
 

I am going to be in London and wanted to try and get up to KEF to see the northern lights in early Jan...I cant seem to find anybody but Iceland Air that flies up to KEF from anyplace? Am i missing something :confused:

Nup. BA used to fly LGW-KEF but this stopped a few years ago - sadly.

You might have more luck with the Northern Lights from Alaska - such as FAI. Far colder in winter than KEF but may be more rewarding. That said, the only times I have seen the Northern Lights have been from midnight flights northbound to ANC about an hour short of ANC.

Its a miserable experience driving around looking for a dark place on the outskirts of FAI in -26 degrees waiting for the sky to light up.

Thanks for the info....already planning to be in London for NYE and was trying to find a cool/different place for the first week of Jan. I have seen the lights a few years ago flying SFO-LHR in Dec and was pretty cool^

How about somewhere north in Finland?

AY flies from HEL to IVL

I agree, Northern Lights are pretty magical.

Wow! You must really want to go to KEF, I mean you are posting essentially the same question all over FT.

This may also be worth checking out and you won't need to leave the UK.

Not really trying to use Oneworld or Star since that is where I have status...1 question in each forum is not really "all over" :rolleyes:

AY has codeshare flights with FI (HEL-KEF nonstop, and via CPH and OSL), but that is probably not something you are looking for.

AB serves KEF but it must be seasonal as can't see any flights coming up around the new year period.
