Planning chaotic trips from bustling airports like JFK is often a juggling act of layovers, tight schedules, and far more luggage than you could ever need, now with the added variables of temperature monitoring, social distancing, and other safety measures. Sounds stressful? Just wait until you're in the thick of it and you realize you still need to get through security and board the plane.

Located in the heart of the Hudson Valley, New York Stewart International Airport (SWF) is a smaller and more convenient option for travel out of New York than JFK or even EWR. Looking to explore another country? Starting June 9, 2022, Stewart will offer direct flights to Iceland via PLAY airlines. Of course, connections to many of the most popular cities across Europe are available.

On the other hand, Frontier Airlines and Allegiant Air still provide cheap, safe options for flying to the southern United States.

"Allegiant's success at New York Stewart International Airport is a testament to our strong partnership and the airline's commitment to follow through on its service expansion plans in the Mid-Hudson Valley," says Omar Astacio, Interim General Manager of New York Stewart International Airport. "We applaud Allegiant and look forward to continue working and growing together."

Reykjavik, Iceland

Once again, Stewart earns a reputation for convenient, affordable direct flights to Europe. PLAY—SWF's newest airline—launches nonstop flights to Iceland early in the summer 2022. One-way tickets start at $161, an unbeatable price for trans-Atlantic travel. Fly straight into Reykjavik (KEF), Iceland's gorgeous capital city. Expressionist architecture, eclectic nightlife, and fresh cuisine are major draws. Above all, Iceland possesses breathtaking nature, from shimmering lakes to tall volcanos. Plus, world-class whale watching and unparalleled views of the Northern Lights make this a magical destination.

However, Stewart's PLAY flights don't have to end with Iceland. Once in Reykjavik (KEF), hop on a connecting flight to London, Paris, Berlin, Dublin, Copenhagen, or any of the 20 European cities within reach from KEF. This airline uses SWF's new $37 million U.S. Customs Hall. The 20,000 sq ft customs and arrival terminal may boast additional European flights in the near future.
