Icelandair

The trip from JFK-KEF was uneventful other than the fact that I requested for my monitor to be reset twice to no prevail. It was our trip home from CDG that made it the worst trip ever. After everyone boarded the plane we were told to take all our belongings and get off because of some problem with the plane. We waited for 1hr to find out flight was cancelled and we needed to pick up our baggage. Only problem was no one told us which carousel to go to and of course we waited another 1hr before we saw the luggage coming out. No one from Icelandair could be found; instead they sent us to the Alyzia counter to book another flight home. We weren't given any information other than that we would have to stay the night there. After staying 24 hrs at the airport we finally booked a flight that was departing in 1hr only to find out that we weren't allowed to check in at such short notice. All in all we waited at the airport for nearly 48 hrs without anyone ever giving us any information.

SEA-KEF in Saga Class. We had to share the British Airways Business Lounge at the Seattle airport. Boarding was on time and the 757-200 cabin was clean. The flight attendants were warm and friendly without being intrusive. Saga class seats are not lie-flat but have a good width and recline to make the 7 hrs flight comfortable. IFE was more than adequate. Service and food were top notch. All in all an excellent flight.

Flew IAD-KEF-LHR in Saga class. IAD check in was ok long time to wait until somebody turned up. A sign to say what time check in would open would be great. Flights and crews fantastic friendly chatty and attentive. Food excellent and I will never hesitate to fly Icelandair again. Saga lounge in KEF is excellent and the Virgin lounge in IAD is very comfy with great staff.

We flew roundtrip from Seattle to Glasgow on Icelandair. We had to stop in Reykavik - (KEF) both ways. What they don't tell you is that they have no seats at the gates in this airport. Everyone stands around in a crowd. Not good if you have a bad knee. It was raining at KEF but we were unloaded down steps in the rain and walked across the cement runway getting soaked on the way. Also their care of luggage is horrible. Luggage was unloaded in the rain with no cover to help protect it on the trams. At the conveyor belt there were items falling out of the suitcases because they had opened them to check but did not fully zip the luggage closed. People complained their luggage did not show up. The attendant from Icelandair stated all luggage was done. My daughter got on the side and looked down the conveyor. She pointed out to the attendant that she could still see 10-12 suitcases down there. Only then did the attendant start the conveyor again! Thanks to my daughter a dozen people did not have to fill out forms. Also I hope you are slender because the seats are much smaller than on American carriers If you want to sit close with your sweetie you're out of luck because the arm rests do not raise like on Delta.

BOS-KEF-BOS. Overall I can't complain. It was a fairly decent experience overall. Both outbound and return flights left and arrived on time. Seats were decent. You have to buy your own food on board in the Economy cabin. Economy cabin staff were reasonably attentive. Inflight entertainment screens were available but I can't comment on them since I didn't use them much. The one bit of trouble I had was that I had flown into Terminal E at BOS on another non-codeshared airline in order to connect to my Icelandair flight. There were no Icelandair check-in kiosks in this area (behind security) and no agents so I could not check in for my Icelandair flight. I tried calling the airline phone but could not reach anyone. An agent finally showed up at the desk about an hour before boarding time. I was able to check in for the flight but because of the late time my seat assignment got mixed up. Things worked out OK though.

Flew AT-KEF via IAD. Luggage checked through to KEF. We checked in DC with the Icelandair gate agent and were told the luggage was "in the system". Now we are in Reykjavik ready to leave for 2 weeks and we still have no luggage. Does Icelandair care - no! They said when it turns up it turns up. Thanks Icelandair. And we were flying Business Class.

Flying SEA-London. Icelandair changed mine and my husband's seats (without notice - so instead of siting by each other for a 7 hr flight we are seated by strangers. Sort of defeats the purpose of Comfort Economy.

I bought a ticket to fly from Manchester to Seattle via Iceland. Less than 24 hours prior to my departure I was informed by my travel agent that my connecting flight had been rescheduled and I would have a layover in Iceland for 24 hours - if I were to stay in a hotel this was to be at my own expense. I had booked through a travel agent and she was able to reschedule me on a KLM flight instead she also secured my refund although it took 6 weeks to come through. Icelandair were unapologetic and absolved all responsibility saying it was their prerogative to reschedule the flights. I make this journey 2-3 times a years and would be reluctant to risk them again.

SEA-KEF B757-200 in Business class. Icelandair use the British Airways lounge at SeaTac. The seats onboard were wide and comfortable but are not flat bed. The flight attendants were engaging and outstanding service. The food was nice.

SEA-KEF-FRA return HAM-KEF-SEA. Inflight service good food for purchase the same as you get on a domestic US flight. IFE good but screen did not work correctly. Connection time in Keflavik was short but caught next flight. On the return I had a 7 hour layover had a great time at the blue Lagoon. Airport is easy to navigate and has restaurant and shops.
