New destination & PLAY nominated for the British Travel Awards

PLAY launched ticket sales to Frankfurt in Germany in July. PLAY´s first flight to Frankfurt will be on December 14, 2023, operating four to five flights a week over the winter period. Frankfurt will have direct connectivity to PLAY's destinations in North America and is PLAY´s fourth destination in Germany along with Berlin, Düsseldorf and Hamburg.

PLAY is nominated as the best airline for low-cost flights at the British Travel Awards. The winners are based on the number of verified consumer votes cast. PLAY is nominated with well-established major airlines, which is a good recognition for a young airline that only celebrated its second anniversary last month.

Following a strong second quarter, where we saw the operational results of PLAY pivot from loss to profit by about USD 15 million from the same quarter last year, we are pleased to report that July was yet another milestone month for us. For the first time, our load factor reached 90% and the number of passengers was over 191,000, up 74% from the same month last year. The all-important summer season in the third quarter is looking strong with increasing revenues and robust demand. We continue to be very proud of our market share in our home market as we see that 54% of all Icelandic people that traveled abroad in June chose PLAY for their journey. A very strong vote of confidence and a clear sign that as we are now in our third summer of operation, we are becoming very established and accepted in this important market.

It is truly an awesome feeling to witness our business model kick into gear after being exceptionally well executed by our great team of people in the challenging ramp-up phase over the last two years. Every one of us here at PLAY is focused on giving our passengers a great price and getting them to their destination in a safe and punctual manner and we will continue to do so in the future while having fun at the same time.
