Price flights today. I'm going in two weeks and paid 1500$ months ago. The same ticket is even more today. Three years ago it was a 500$ flight.

- busterarm 3y agoYears ago it was shockingly cheap, but I still found local lodging and eating out expensive. My last trip was in 2009 for EVE Fanfest and a week-long stay in a hotel on Laugavegur ran me around $5k USD. Most other trips for same length of stay at that time were running me half that or less.
- avar 3y agoIceland's expensive, but saying it's expensive because a hotel on Laugarvegur is expensive is like saying America's expensive because a hotel within walking distance of Times Square is expensive.
- MrDresden 3y agoAdd to that story that Iceland was in a deep economic slump after the financial meltdown when you arrived in 2009. The currency was cheap for anyone to buy. You can imagine how the cost would be now after the economy has recovered since then, plus at least 10% inflation.
