Hi all,

These are pictures from my trip with Icelandair from Toronto to Copenhagen via Reykjavik back in May 2013. I wanted to try Icelandair as I was curious to experience it and also they advertised in a lot of places in Toronto and even in the metro stations so I thought I'd give them a try. I chose a long layover in Iceland so that I can visit Reykjavik as well.

Boarding

The cabin in Icelandair is very fresh, organized, clean and has a nice vibe, I really liked it and the seat colours were great too

The seats were very comfortable, with good leg room and a foot rest

It's very cool that Icelandair includes interesting facts about Iceland on their headrest and provide authentic and cool Icelandic items, such as the cool looking bottle of water or the pillow and other items that teach people about their country :)

The only downside was that you had to buy food on the aircraft, which I did not do as we already had dinner in the airport terminal

So beautiful

Exploring the Reykjavik Airport Terminal

It was a nice airport but overcrowded when the north american flights depart all at almost the same time

Conclusion

Overall a great flight with Icelandair, very comfortable. The Reykjavik airport is nice but timing all north american flights one after another within the period of 2 hours made the terminal very busy and crowded and there were not enough seats available for people.
