New flights to Iceland and Las Vegas are starting up at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.
Fort Worth-based American Airlines is kicking off its new flight to Reykjavik, Iceland - the country's capital and largest city - with a special gate event featuring an ice sculpture, traditional Icelandic food and Iceland-inspired music.
The new route, running from June through late-October, will be flown on a 176-seat Boeing 757-200 with lie-flat business class seats. Customers on the inaugural flight will also be provided a gift package.
Minnesota-based Sun Country Airlines is bringing a seasonal route from DFW to Las Vegas' McCarran International Airport, running from June through Aug. 20, on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays.
"We look forward to connecting the two and bringing our Midwest hospitality and convenient nonstop service to more passengers through this route network expansion," Jude Bricker, president and CEO of Sun Country Airlines, said in a news release.
