Keflavík Airport is without hot water due to lava flowing through Njarðvík hot water pipe.

This is what Guðjón Helgason, information officer for Isavia, says.

Limited impact on airport at present

“To date, such a situation has limited impact on the operation of Keflavik Airport but we are following developments closely and are well-prepared if necessary measures are needed, including to deal with possible cooling at the terminal due to shortage of hot water,” Helgason stated.

According to him, air carriers and air service companies are well-informed about the situation in the airport so they can take action in their services and in their operational areas at the airport if and when needed.
