↑$638 above typicalIcelandair FI618 is the sole option in the cache for this window, so it ranks first by default — not because it's been validated against a competitive set. At $786 with 1 stop and a total elapsed time of 42h 40m (2,560 minutes), it represents the only verified fare available in the ±7-day flex window. The elapsed time is notably long for a transatlantic routing, which is a meaningful trade-off the user should weigh before booking.
Book on Aviasales →Live price confirmed on Aviasales.- Cache is thin: only 1 valid option was returned across the full ±7-day flex window. This is not a competitive comparison — it's a single data point. Do not treat $786 as a market-clearing price.
- The DOW histogram shows availability on Saturday only (Sept 11 departure). Other departure dates in the window returned no results, which may reflect cache gaps rather than true unavailability.
- The return is flagged as Sept 20 — two days later than the requested Sept 18 return date. If a Sept 18 return is firm, this itinerary does not meet your requirement. Confirm the return date carefully at the partner site before booking.
