CROSSING THE NORTH ATLANTIC

Our flight across the Atlantic requires a stop in Iceland - and quite honestly, a North Atlantic crossing isn't complete without a visit to Iceland. Regardless of the aircraft, we all need a stop in this small country to make the rest of the route possible.

Although small, Iceland has a lot to offer and is a geological wonder. It also has a significant role in aviation. As pilots, a visit to the Air Traffic Control Center, which controls the airspace across the Atlantic, is a must do!
