NEW – Iceland Short Break

A three night trip to Akureyri

Unique Icelandic Adventure Launch from Norwich Airport

Super Break Launches Epic Arctic Experience with Exclusive Flights to Akureryri, North Iceland

Norwich residents the first to Fly to a Brand-New Destination Previously Unreachable from UK Airports 

A rare opportunity to go genuinely off the beaten track is being offered to East Anglian holidaymakers thanks to brand-new and exclusive Arctic experiences launching this week by Super Break.

Norwich Airport is among the first airport in the country to fly direct to Akureyri in North Iceland, with flights available exclusively with Super Break. Representing the ultimate one-of-a-kind adventure, the newly chartered flights are part of a very special short break and are predicted to go straight to the top of the UK’s travel bucket list.

But it’s not just the new flights that East Anglian holidaymakers have to look forward to. In Akureyri, Iceland’s lively second city, travellers can visit their first volcano or embark on their first lava walk. They can even go to their first ever beer spa.

A series of must-do experiences await Brits in Akureyri. Discover a brand-new destination before the crowds, and take advantage of the region’s fantastic opportunities to search for the spectacular Northern Lights on a tour included in the price of every break.

All Super Break trips to Akureyri also include a Lake Myvatn Adventure – Land of Fire and Ice Tour, which includes the chance to see the region’s many magical terrains, the Goddafoss Waterfall, the boiling mud pools of Namafjall and a stop at Vogafjos working farm. There is also the opportunity to visit Myvatn Nature Baths – the ‘Blue Lagoon of the North’ or take part in a Snowmobiling Experience (extra charge applies).

Holidaymakers can choose from a huge variety of additional action-packed activities to create the perfect short break, with getaways starting at just £699 per person:

  • Whale watching – head out to Eeyjafjörður with excellent chances to see the resident humpback whales, harbour porpoises and dolphins
  • Icelandic horse riding where you can ride across coasts and into the scenic mountains
  • Lofthellir Ice Cave Winter Challenge – a unique lava cave filled with ice formations, stalagmites and sculptures.

Get ahead of the trend and book a ticket today for the chance to try something for the first time this winter when the inaugural flights take off in February 2018 from Norwich Airport.

Richard Pace, Managing Director of Norwich Airport said: “We are delighted that Super Break has chosen to offer this unique opportunity to visit North Iceland this winter.
