TRIPREPORT | Icelandair (ECONOMY) | Boeing 767-300 | Reykjavik Keflavik - London Heathrow 

The 767 is truly one of the most comfortable twin aisle aircraft to fly on, with its 2-3-2 seating. Fairly quite too. Not too big, not too small. Perfect landing.

On a flight leaving iceland: "HEY HAVE YOU HEARD OF ICELAND? WANT TO GO THERE?"

haha, why is iceland green but greenland ice

Great to see the ex Air New Zealand 767 being used

Flew from O’Hare to Berlin with stopover in Reykjavik. Didn’t realize Icelandair was a budget airline until afterwards. Service and punctuality were amazing. Would definitely fly again.

i think the entrie population of iceland was in that terminal.

I needed something good today, thanks for uploading

5:30 the Iceland AIR is really COOL isn't it?

the cabin looks so good because its brand new, icelandair mostly run rather old plaines. but unlike many others they actually buy the planes, redo the cabin and keep them top notch

I flew with Icelandair, Halifax - Keflvaik - Gatwick and I must say the service from Icelandair is always truly exceptional.

Thanks for uploading! The 767 is definitely one of Boeing's success stories!

I’ve only ever flown Icelandair, whenever I’ve flown to the Netherlands, to visit family. I highly recommend them 😊

Nice video! ;) I always thought Iceland air gives you some free snacks... anyways the cabin looks really nice! Did you count how many times you showed the same view of the cabin? haha ;) what some people might have thought about that xD

So I've used IcelandAir to fly from Munich to the Minneapolis 3 times now and have had 2 great experiences. I love the fact that you can take 2 checked bags for free, the good legroom and short stopover times with great connections. BUT last Summer I was in my own (a sixteen year old) flying over to Minneapolis again and they fucked up bad. For some reason the airspace over Iceland closed because of some Problem with the control Tower over there and WE had to circle over Scottland for a while. Once we ran out of fuel, WE had to fly to Bergen to figure out the problem and fuel up, but since every IcelandAir plane was effected there were more than one big Plane at this little auch, so it took a while for us to get back in the air. We couldn't leave the plane and had to sit there for hours with no free food. Since every plane was effected many other connecting flights also delayed, including mine. When we finaly got to Keflavik my flight was gone though for no apperent reason. they gave me Vouchers for a taxy and a Hotel in Rekjavik wich was nice, but since the flight to Minneapolis was full they put me in a flight to Boston wich then was also delayed by an hour, so I missed my flight from Boston to Minneapolis. There was noone at the IcelandAir counter for 5hours and I didn't reach anyone on their "Support" phonenumber. After taking to Delta employees and drinving Back and forth in that ugly Airport between two Terminals dir hours, there finaly were some IcelandAir people at their check in counter and they rebooked me. All worked out then and I finaly arrived in Minneapolis after a 36h Trip. The Boston Part kinda sucked, but it was nice to see downtown Rekjavik for Free.

B767 is my favorite Boeing plane!

Icelandair seems like a really classy and good airline. I haven't travelled on them yet, but I do have an inflight magazine from when my sister flew through to Copenhagen. I collect inflight magazines and the Icelandair IM is one of my favourites out of the ones I have. I love Icelandair's livery and fleet! Hekla Aurora is one of my favourite liveries. My one criticism is how the food is not free. Given Iceland's geographical position, the flight can be quite long and the fact they don't serve anything for a 5 or 6 hour flight is kind of ridiculous.

For a 2-hour flight, you really wouldn't have time to watch a full-length movie. The legroom was superior, but a snack along with the complimentary drink would be appreciated.

After the economic crisis of 2008 and the eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano in 2010, the Icelandic government started heavily subsidising the tourist industry as a way to rebuild their economy. That's why you see a lot of tourist promotions on Icelandair and WOW Air. While this has been successful in rebuilding the Icelandic economy, the volume of tourists is putting a strain on the travel infrastructure to accommodate everyone.

I don't know , among all flight reports , yours are the best for a reason. I alway enjoy them as I am an aviation addict . Please keep up with these , your work is just amazing

The cabin looks quite modern for a 767. Nice 👍🏿 Thanks for the share

Your reviews are humorous, straightforward, show what we want to see, and I thought I'd skip some parts of this 22-minute video but I watched it in full - you managed to grab my attention. Awesome! Just subbed.

Congratulations! You are doing an excellent job. We all love to watch your tripreports! :-) I'm anxious to watch the next! 😍🛫🛬

this channel will going to became inspiration for many people ....this is how you travel enjoying and curious ...

Awesome trip report on Icelandair! Would you mind making some more Icelandair trip reports, this is your only one, I really enjoy.

Yup. Rush hour at Keflavik is early morning and in the afternoon due to the shedule of icelandair flights....

1st of all love the cabin for their 767's. 2nd of all love their seats made of leather. 3rd of all love the ife. 4th DAMN IT'S COLD!!!!!!!!!!

Reminds me of my good flight on Condor!

It was very nostalgic watching you board the coach at the central bus terminal...I have been on them before when in Iceland and from that gate!

20:09 that A319 has been replaced on the YYT-LHR and YHZ-LHR has been replaced with a 737 MAX 8. But because of the groundings. The routes have both been suspended.

The reason that WOW air check in was closed was that all flights to Europe indeed already departed at your time of arrival at Keflavik. At Keflavik the schedule is as follow. First WOW and Icelandair landing from USA and Canada. Then WOW flights to Europe depart. Then Icelandair same story and in the afternoon those flights return. WOW then departs to USA and Canada and Icelandair does the same. On most destinations the crew can do a return on the same plane. This means that both airlines save a lot on staff expenses as they don't have to pay hotels for the crew to rest. That's why they are very efficient and cheaper.... It's also the reason that Keflavik is very quiet most of the day. Only when flights arrive and depart it's very crowded as the do all on the same time of the day. On my flight at WOW from 300 passengers only 30-40 had Iceland as final destination. All the others were transferring. That meant that the arrivals hall and luggage carrousel where very quiet when I arrived....

don't stop making videos plz!! they are great!!

At the start of your video, I felt cold just watching those people get on the bus. That was one big economy cabin on the 767, still nice if there is two of you and you are able to have a set of the two seats. That 767 was a young 17 years old, not too bad, shame about the window. Very nice to have the IFE on the short hop. Great video as always.

I flew from Keflavik to Manchestr on 18/11/18 only because there wasnt a flight to Newcastle I would recommend Icelandair above all others. They couldnt do enough for me

Great uploads on your trip reports from a former avgeek globetrekker. Icelandair always had a nice product differentation when they flew out of Baltimore via 757s. Still looks great. Dont remember much of the terminal concessions transferring to luxemburg, but the present terminal looks modern, updated, well maintained and easy to navigate with adequate signage. That was a quick weekend trip from Louisville to Baltimore to Iceland onto Luxemburg and return over 20 years ago. Again great job on your trip reports.

State of the art flight review.I think that airports with so much cold, like Keflavik,should have passengers boarding through jet bridges and tell me guys was the way to the gate 15 minutes?Sounds so long.The plane looks so fresh.That wingview with this huge winglet was outstanding.Congrats.

Yes thank you for doing Icelandair! im going on Icelandair and its great to find out more info about the airline!

Nice video David ! I've been watching your videos since last year, and now I'm thinking to videos like yours here in Brazil. Thanks for the vídeos. Bye !

I'm happy to watch simply aviation

Haha I was just looking for an icelandair economy class review on the 767 yesterday! I'm glad you made this!

thanks for this vid i find your videos helpful and i see how they comfort and welcome passengers thanks a lot!

Love watching back these old tripreports. And hello from Hanwell, west London and about 20 mins away from LHR (London Heathrow) ❤️🙌🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧‼️

legend has it the wow air check in is still empty to this day :o

Emm dude i have a question do you fly all this for your job or for youtube

Finally a good icelandair trip report

Very nice report on the quiet and competent 767, rated one of the most comfortable jets to fly.

#loveboarding #loveplanes #loveairports #lovestores

Thanks for the nice clip! I like Icelandair and have flown Portland, OR to Reykjavik a couple of times on the 757, which doesn't look quite as nice as the 767. This May, however, Icelandair's economy fares are substantially more than British Airways, Virgin Atlantic and Delta to London. We've opted for premium economy on Virgin, which is US $400 less than Icelandair's version of premium economy and offers much more!

Definitely one of the best airlines. Keep it up, really great detailed reports.

12:19 Even Pretty little Liars? omg nicee

I LOVE ICELANDAIR! I had a really good experience with them, when I travelled from Amsterdam to Boston in 2014! I would love to fly with them again! P.S. I love your channel! Awesome video! Keep on going! =D

I've watched almost every video you've made start to finish. I love your videos / videos like this Bc I'm an airplane geek. I'm going to be watching these on flights / pretty much anywhere I go when I have time.

Icelandair seems like a cool airline. Loved the report! Quality as always!

Thank you and all of the other trip reporters u guys have inspired me to do This when I'm older and travel 😀

It's nice to see the ex-Air New Zealand 76Ws still flying around.

Yay The Tripreport Is Out ! It Was A Nice Tripreport :)

Nice vid;) keep it up! Cant wait for the flight report with wow air

Love it so much!

when i first went into the terminal ground floor, my first thought, oh, the airport was really small. went up to the second floor to go through security. wow, the departure area was really really big and nice. btw, i will fly icelandair again, can't beat its low price even though they don't serve meals.

I think that icelandair its a little bit incompentent they can go to latam or asia with new type of aircrafts (a330 or 787), new seating like fully-flat bed for business and better service like complete meals

This is so fun and awesome

nice job David can't wait for next friday !

LOL In Reykjavik it almost never snows. And, by the way, everythin the Icelandics do, they get perfect and amazing

I thought they might serve meals on board. And this is the first time I am seeing London sunny lol.

Simply Aviation I like that your showing the bus and trains you took :D :D :)

I was looking forward to trying Icelandair, but I don't think I will be flying with them again for the following reasons: 1) No lounge access outside of Reykjavik, and connection times were too tight to access the lounge in Reykjavik. 2) No check-in counter available at Charles de Gaulle when I arrived early for my flight, and no instructions for where to drop off checked baggage after self check-in. 3) No priority boarding, and Keflavik airport is too small to accommodate the number of passengers connecting. 4) Inconsistent meal service, on the first segment, they were out of lamb, and on the second segment, I got the last beef. 5) I think the lower prices attracted people who typically wouldn't be seated in a premium cabin, as I had a disruptive, entitled family of three seated in my row. I wouldn't recommend flying Icelandair again.

Good review David, Icelandair looks like a nice airline to fly with. The business class configuration of 2-1-2 is really strange!

Perfect video after a long day :)

This is probably the best tripreport of yours

huge difference of what i experienced back in 1988 when i flew on a fabulous yet tight DC-8 super 63

Finally! Thanks. Been waiting for this for a long time. Well done.

Excellent video. Thanks for the ride along. Mrs. Bouquet would have been appalled by those windows! Cheers.

This Report totallly reminds me of my cancelled flight from KEF to STR.... BTW, awesome like always, dude! :D

Realy great video..but i just have one question...how can you manage to get a window seat in every single flight?

Thank you David and Felix. This is so exciting.

I have flown Icelandair 4 times and I really liked it. Their food was great

Was there any stopover ads in the toilets? XD

Althoung it is an old plane looks like a new 767-300.They must be take care good of it.Nice Tripreport

12:40 For me, out of all countries having the best “Sponge Bobs”, it has to be Spain, with “Bob Esponja”

ahhh it's so good to see this Airport again. Been here at summer and it was awesome!

I love your channel Simply aviation))) (:

The fps is pretty smooth

Awesome video again guys! BIG LIKE! :)

the best tip when you board a plane is ether first or second or to even 5 but is your not on like that level you should board last you you can go all the way without traffic....

Mal wieder ein klasse Trip Report :) Von Icelandair habe ich bisher auch nur Gutes gehört und dieser Trip Report hat das mal wieder bestätigt. Besonders gut gefällt mir die Kabine, die sieht ja mal richtig schick aus :D Hoffe das ich auch bald mal mit Icelandair fliegen werde ^^ Daumen hoch :)

love your videos bro,Keep it up! :D

Another sick video, David!

That IFE is exactly the same as on SAS´ new cabin on their A330s and A340s. As SAS recently started CPH-VIE (though with A319s/A320s and CRJ900s) I hope that we´ll soon see a trip report with them as the flights from VIE are well timed with flights onwards to ORD, NRT and PVG :-)

I'ts true that WOW departs earlier then Icelandair... Had a flight with them to Amsterdam last summer. All morning flights depart between 5.30 and 6.45. At that time Icelandair starts their morning flights to Europe....

Great Report. My only criticism is that your camera movement is too fast specially in the beginning at the airport.

Amazing video as always. Icelandair are the best love flying with them. Well done great video

Dude, don’t let the chocolate in contact with the tray table, it’s one of the dirtiest places in a plane!😣 BTW I like your videos! Greetings from Brazil!👍🏻

Could you guys do a trip report between kef and yeg pls

Great trip Report! I noticed the ifes are the same as the new ones that Lufthansa are using!

Cool Video. Please more tripreport.

Nice the world is really beautiful

Ex Air New Zealand Boeing 767 and looks like Iceland Air have done a good job and reconfiguring the aircraft

super! I love Icelandair

Awesome trip report, as always! ☺️
