Mediocre

Ventajas: The inflight crew were pleasant and attentive. It was a very nice touch to offer children kids meals and a bag with play items and headphones.

Desventajas: The food options were extremely limited.

boarding not great and strange changes in temperature

Ventajas: Professional crew, very helpful.

Desventajas: People pushed/shoved me on the stairs to the aircraft from outside. not malicious but not polite and definitely wasn't ideal boarding practice. And the person sitting next to me on the plane cleaned his teeth with a pick and then wiped it on his jeans..yuck. But not IcelandAir's fault.

Ventajas: In-flight entertainment

Desventajas: No complimentary food - not even pretzels - on a 6.5 hour international flight.

Ventajas: This was our first flight with Iceland Air and we kind of looked forward to it. On the way oversease we were immediately rebooked onto Swiss Air, before arriving at the airport, because Iceland Air had a delay and knew we would miss our connecting flight to Germany. We were very impressed by this and very happy with Swiss Air, also. On the way back we liked the roomier plane and the relative punctuality of the flights. Our luggage arrived fine and quickly at the end destination, despite the short layover, which often leads to lost luggage.

Desventajas: Our biggest complaint is that Iceland Air does not offer meals as part of your ticket on its flights. They expect you to upgrade (and pay) for 'economy comfort' in order to get the meals and seating included in most other regular economy tickets. I don't think that being on a 6.5 hour flight (and a 3.5 hour flight immediately before without chance of making puchases at the airport in between, due to their delay) without a meal being included in your ticket is acceptable practice. They had a meny from which you could purchase food, things like baguette with ham/cheese, salad, oatmeal, instant noodles etc. But the prices for these cheap cafeteria options were insane. From the cheapest ($7 for a small instant oatmeal) to $16-$20 for a salad or small main course you would have to spend an additional 25-35$ per meal per person to get the usual airplane meal that all other airlines I know of include (2 per overseas flight). We did go hungry, eat candy, bought one little oatmeal and pretty much will avoid Iceland Air for that reason in the future. We thought it was outreageous to be asked to spend this amount of money or go without food for over 9 hours.
