Key highlights
The Icelandic travel and tourism sector registered a downturn in 2008 as the country’s economy slipped into crisis and the country's three major
privately owned commercial banks – Glitnir, Landsbanki and Kaupthing – collapsed. According to World Bank data, Iceland’s GDP shrank
by 6.6% in 2009 and 4.1% in 2010. The dip in travel and tourism activity in the country was expected to decline further following the volcanic eruption at
Eyjafjallajökull in 2010. However, the disaster turned into an opportunity as thousands of tourists flocked to Iceland to witness the volcanic activity. Media
coverage of the eruption presented Iceland on an international platform. Furthermore, the devaluation of the króna due to the financial crisis also pushed down the
price of goods and services in the country. These factors supported the growth of what became known as ‘volcano tourism’ by many Icelandic tour
operators. Domestic tourism is dependent on income levels and propensity to travel. A high unemployment rate leads to a fall in residents’ inclination to
spend. During the review period, domestic tourism was impacted by a high unemployment rate prevailing in the country in the wake of the financial crisis.
However, the unemployment rate, which increased from 2.2% in June 2008 to 7.5% in June 2009, fell to 5.2% in June 2012. Iceland also recorded an increase in
the number of visitors from emerging markets such as China and Russia. According to the Icelandic Tourist Board, between January and September 2013, the
number of Chinese tourists through Keflavík International Airport increased at a rate of 24.4%, while the number of Russian visitors increased at a rate of 54.3%.
In April 2013, a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) was signed between Iceland and China; it is expected to further strengthen trade and tourism ties between the two
countries. Growth in the volume international departures from Iceland is expected over the forecast period. The expected growth can be attributed to the
increasing air capacity and better connectivity to key destinations. For example, Iceland Air launched services to Anchorage in Alaska during the summer months
(May–September) of 2013. The company also increased the frequency of its flights on key routes. Gatwick–Iceland was increased to four times a
week and London–Iceland was increased to three times a week. Wow Air, launched in May 2012, was the second low-cost airline to be launched in
Iceland after Iceland Express which began operating in 2002. In October 2012, Wow Air acquired Iceland Express to become Iceland’s only low-cost
airline. In November 2013, the airline announced its plan to launch direct transatlantic routes to the US. The new service, which will be launched in spring 2014,
will fly six times a week between Keflavik International Airport and Boston. The airline hopes to capture a larger share of Iceland’s tourism market,
which increased by 20% in 2012, with the new services. The Icelandic hotel market faces the issue of seasonality in tourism activity, which impacts hotel
occupancy rates and revenues. According to Statistics Iceland, in Greater Reykjavík, Iceland’s capital region and the major tourism hub, a 91.9%
occupancy rate was recorded in June 2012, while an occupancy rate of 39.6% was recorded in January in the same year. In areas such as the Westfjords,
occupancy rates dropped to as low as 7.2% in January 2012, while a 58.3% occupancy rate was recorded in June 2012. The increasing number of tourists and
growth in car rental business led to the entry of new companies into the market. In August 2013, Red Car Rental, a part of Iceland’s leading travel network
Kynnisferdir, was launched. In addition to offering a brand new fleet of cars, the company also offered a launch discount of 10% on pre-paid bookings to attract
customers. Icelandic tour operators have benefitted from the shooting of films and television series’ in the country. For example, in 2013, Iceland Travel, a
leading Icelandic tour operator, launched ‘Game of Thrones’-themed tours from the UK to Iceland. The tour, which takes travelers to the filming
locations of the Game of Thrones television series, will be on offer between 1st October 2013 and 30th April 2014.
