Did you miss it?
Maybe Iceland?
They haven’t written about it for a thousand years, haven’t dreamed about it for two thousand years, and haven’t flown there for three thousand years. Can i. And all the same — through Armenia, Georgia, UAE, Turkey and further — through Europe. With visas, of course.
Wizz right now has a small sale for August-October, which does not inspire much shopping, but strongly inspires you to sit down and dream about Iceland.
You can also sit down, dream, or even buy tickets to Iceland.
The scheme is the same: a city in the Russian Federation — Yerevan/Baku/Kutaisi/Tbilisi — Venice/Milan/Vienna/Sofia/Athens/Thessaloniki/Budapest — Reykjavik. Back or the same way or via Istanbul or by flight to the Baltic countries, and from there by land (it is possible).
A couple of important points:
1. Lay down at least a day for connections, and preferably more: who knows how many more times Vizz, Azimuth or any Armenian airline will want to reschedule your flight?
2. if you have to fly a lot with Wizz, then it makes sense to subscribe Wizz Discount (40 euros per year for you and one fellow traveler), you will definitely save money with it.
Let’s try to make something for any month (yes, we know that Iceland is a little nicer in summer than in winter, but)
Kazan — Yerevan, September 13 (or September 20 for 6900)
Yerevan — Rome (18, 19, September 22, 24 to choose from)
Rome — Reykjavik (September 21 or 24) or Milan — Reykjavik (September20)
Reykjavik — Rome: September 28, 1, 5 Oct/Reykjavik — Milan: 4 Oct/Reykjavik — Vienna: October 2,
Rome — Baku: 1, 3, or 5 Oct/Milan — Yerevan: 1 Oct/Venice — Yerevan: 4, 7 Oct
Baku — Makhachkala
Total: 27,500 rubles for Iceland in September (!) + tickets from Makhachkala to your city. Well, if you are from Makhachkala, then you only need to get to Kazan, Sochi or Minsk at the start of the trip.
There are more dates for the winter months, which means it’s easier to assemble a voyage.
January 21st, Sochi — Yerevan for 2785 rubles
January 23, Yerevan — Venice for 3600 rubles
January 27, Milan — Reykjavik for 3100 rubles
Total: 9500 rubles for a flight to Iceland. Back with the same makar.
You can also drop in from Kaluga
Moscow
MinVod
Okay, now let’s try to put together a full-fledged round trip. From Ufa, for example.
From Ufa to Yerevan in January-March for 5,900 rubles
From Yerevan to Venice
From Venice to Milan for almost free by bus, and from there to Iceland
January 29:
Home:
Reykjavik, Milan, February 1
Rome Baku, February 3
Baku — Ufa, February 6
Total: for a voyage to Iceland in January-February from Ufa, you will be charged 31500 rubles (Italy, Azerbaijan and Armenia on the way).
Back except for the obvious flights from Baku/Tbilisi/Yerevan to Sochi/MinVody/Makhachkala can use such beautiful opportunities:
Baku — Samara (December-March)
It is not necessary to return through the Caucasus; you can fly straight to the Baltic countries, and from there home by land (you can)
On the way back you can see Paris (and fly further)
+ that’s it (watch out for Ryanair sales — winter tickets will be added soon too)
What’s there for housing? Nothing new.
A bed in a room with 42 beds (mmm) for 2500 rubles (mmm)
And here are two funny pictures from a previous life.
In 2017, it became known that the S7 would fly from Moscow to Iceland. And we were wondering how much you are willing to pay for two direct flights to Reykjavik.
We were naive and arrogant, and Y7 flew for almost free after a year and a half:
Sorry.
