Northern Lights will be a hop, skip and jump from Inverness, thanks to a new direct flight.

Inverness will soon be the first airport in the UK to have a direct flight to north Iceland – and the film locations of Game of Thrones.

Short-break specialist Super Break has launched a programme of holidays in 2020 to Akureyri, north Iceland – a destination previously unreachable direct from UK airports

Following the previous success of its Incredible North Iceland breaks, the company has announced a new programme of getaways to Northern Iceland including a first departure from Inverness Airport on February 10 2020.

A spokesman for Super Break said: “These ultimate one-of-a-kind breaks offer holidaymakers from the Scottish Highlands the opportunity to see the north coast of Iceland at its wildest and genuinely go off the beaten track with exclusive four-night experiences.

“Still the only operator in the UK to fly direct to north Iceland, the new breaks are all include exclusive regional flights direct to Akureyri, a four-night hotel stay and two excursions – including the chance to hunt for the spectacular Northern Lights and visit breath-taking Game of Thrones filming locations.

“All trips include a Lake Myvatn Adventure – Land of Fire and Ice Tour, which offers the chance to see the region’s magical terrain, including the Goddafoss Waterfall and the boiling mud pools of Namafjall.”

Press & Journal Travel is currently offering an Incredible North Iceland holiday package utilising the direct Inverness flight here.
