Keflavik airport, the country's main transport hub, was closed and remains closed this morning.
Experts are predicting that the impact on air travel this time would be more limited as winds are more favourable, the plume's content is heavier and less likely to spread, and authorities have a higher tolerance for ash levels.
However, if the eruption continues at the same rate and winds do not change, ash could reach northern Scotland by tomorrow and spread to England, France and even Spain by Thursday or Friday.
As there is no impact on flights at this stage, airlines have not issued any policies and clients who have flights that they wish to cancel or change, do so at the published fare conditions.
