Solar eclipse could trigger unfortunately timed inflation spike
A total solar eclipse will be visible in western Iceland on 12 August this year. There is enormous demand for flights to the country, accommodation, restaurants and rental cars during that period, and many services are already fully booked. Higher turnover and price pressure on various services will likely be considerable in the areas where the eclipse will be visible.
