Icelandic budget airline Play is making international family travel more affordable with a special promotion offering $2 fares for children when an adult books a roundtrip flight from the United States to various European destinations. This limited-time offer is designed to encourage family travel and provide a cost-effective option for exploring Europe.
Promotion Details
The promotion is available for bookings made by 11:59 p.m. ET on September 17. Families can take advantage of this offer when booking flights to Iceland, Copenhagen, Paris, London, Amsterdam, Dublin, Berlin, or Liverpool. To qualify for the $2 fares, children must be under 11 years old.
“International travel provides families with an opportunity to bond and exposes children to new cultures, cuisines, and experiences,” said Play CEO Einar Örn Ólafsson. “High travel costs often prevent families with young children from making such trips. This offer is our way of making it easier for families to travel together and create lasting memories in Iceland and beyond.”

The $2 fares for children apply to one-way flights and are available with the lowest basic fare. The basic fare includes a personal item but excludes carry-on luggage, checked bags, or seat selection. The promotion is valid for travel during the following periods:
- September 29 to October 6
- October 8 to October 20
- October 22 to November 3
- November 5 to December 15
It is important to note that the $2 fares cover only the cost of the airfare and do not include taxes, fees, or carrier charges.
