With this new route, Icelandair now provides flights to its third gateway in the Pacific Northwest region of North America, and 14th overall in the United States and Canada.
Icelandair's 2015 route network is the largest in the airline's history with flights to more than 20 destinations throughout Europe.
Birkir Holm Gudnason, CEO of Icelandair, said: "The past six years have been very positive for Icelandair and we aim to continue on the same path in 2015. With today's announcements we will continue to strengthen our position in the international market between North America and Europe, offering increased flight capacity, new gateways, and more aircraft than any year prior. With both business and leisure travel to Iceland poised to increase further, our extensive route network provides passengers with an unrivaled opportunity, and we are very excited to team with Portland as they become an important part of this continued success.
