Flying with Icelandair was a very enjoyable experience. (That’s a sentence I never thought I’d hear myself say!)
The inflight entertainment system was actually possible to navigate, though it got a bit finicky on the return flight. And it had Sherlock, so what more can I say?
I also liked the fact that for an international flight, the captain spoke English fluently and without sounding like they were reading it of a card, which is unusual!
The lighting was also very pretty (along the area by the overhead baggage there the lights were imitating an aurora, in a tasteful way!)
The flight attendants were very polite and pleasant. I felt sorry for them at the end of the flight, as when we reached the US(In plenty of time for my connecting flight!) the jet way wouldn’t attach properly. So they were stuck trying to calm a plane full of annoyed passengers, as well as prepare to deplane, and then get us all seated so that they could move us to another gate, and then get us off. They did a brilliant job of this by the way.
Also, they gave out complementary drinks, and the food wasn’t that expensive for an airplane.
EDITORS COMMENT: Great review, thanks for sharing!
