KEF stands for Keflavík International Airport, an airport code abbreviation.
Iceland's main international airport, located about 50 kilometers southwest of Reykjavik on the Reykjanes Peninsula. Icelandair uses it as a midpoint between North America and Europe.
Example: The KEF stopover was free, so we added three days in Iceland on the way to Paris.
Usage notes
ICAO code BIKF. The airport was built by the US military during World War II and was a US naval air station until 2006. Icelandair's free stopover program helped turn Iceland into a major tourist destination. Reykjavik's small city airport (RKV) handles domestic flights.
