Thanks for the replies everyone, it wasn't me being stupid then. But it's a shame. I bet Orlando would have been the biggest market from the northwest out of the 4 US destinations they offered. But there is plenty of choice out there for us to get to Orlando I suppose!

Flights now bookable to the 1st May 2023. Pretty sure last time I looked they stopped at the end of March.
Also appear to be adding Washington Dulles as a connection from the end of April (in addition to Baltimore). Fingers crossed they stay for the summer!

With the new route starting soon, I decided to have a look at pricing. The "come on !" fare for the first day is £41, Liverpool Keflavik, one way . (Cannot get beyond that without signing up.) Generally fares in the 40/50 region. Astonished to see a fare of £449 on October 17th. Something or some event driving that up so high.

Its to catch supporters going back to Iceland/USA after going to see Man City beat Liverpool the day before.

I've booked a trip back for Christmas from Boston, great to have this option, even if the baggage is a little eye watering cost wise

"LPL", I'm taking that as a 'tongue-firmly-in-cheek' comment! Admin.

Its to catch supporters going back to Iceland/USA after going to see Man City beat Liverpool the day before. The irony then of the first fans to be spotted being Everton supporters flying in for Sunday’s likely defeat to the other side of Manchester…

At the end of the day, it should not matter what colour shirt they have on their backs. We should be greatfull they chose to use Liverpool rather than Manchester, such a shame more people who live and work in the Liverpool City region could not do the same.

More leg room then EZY 320's. The Play A320's seat 174 as opposed to 186 on easyJet. So, two rows less on Play
