The past July over one million passengers traveled through Keflavik Airport, a first in Iceland’s aviation history. In all, the passengers were 1,1 million – a 22,21 percent increase from July 2016.
The number includes all passengers who pass through the airport, whether they are leaving or arriving in Iceland or catching a connecting flight, according to Guðni Sigurðsson of Isavia. The record for number of planes traveling in Iceland’s airspace also fell in July, with over 20 thousand planes passing through.
