All airports in Ice­land are open, despite the erupti­on in Holuhraun. Passengers flying to or from Iceland should not anticipate any flight disruptions at this stage. 

An eruption started in Holuhraun north of Dyngjujökull at around 00:02. Seismic tremor was observed on all seismic stations and the web camera installed in the area by Mila has showed some nice pictures of the eruption.  It is a small fissure eruption and at 02:40 AM the activity appears to have decreased.
