Fanfest Airport Strikes - Update

UPDATE 29/4/14 - Possible ALL flights on 30th will be cancelled - http://www.kefairport.is/English/News/2636/Information-regarding-a-possible-strike-at-Icelandic-airports/default.aspx

Its the week of Fanfest and the strikes are still on.


CCP said they will refund tickets if the general strike goes full on -

Really nice of CCP to do this. They could have have said "nothing to do with us" and kept the money. Props to CCP for this.

Check with your airline before travelling and also the KEF website - http://www.kefairport.is/English/News/ - Don't get excited by the latest story about "Strike Over". That refers to the mini-strike last week.

If you are travelling to Fanfest, good luck, and may the force be with you!
