Iceland Air - Flying at its FINEST

Time to leave the snow behind for sunny Florida! I could not contemplate lugging a large suitcase down the road to Radisson Saga in the snow, so I called a taxi for an expensive, yet necessary ride.
The Reykjavik Excursion "FlyBus" that transports to Keflavik Airport is unexpectedly comfortable with free wifi and reasonable price.
I decided to spend the remaining krona at the airport duty free shops. Then I enjoyed a few quiet, relaxing hours in the Iceland Air Saga Lounge. It was worth draining my frequent flyer miles to fly home in Saga (first class).

Iceland Air rules the sky  - - - this is flying old school in the best possible way. The flight attendants dress with pride in stylish uniforms. These ladies worked the 7 hour flight in heels while walking in turbulence with the grace of runway models. This gracious attendant agreed to pose with Mr. Good, my travel companion.

Most US planes have attendants who look more like waitresses at the cheap diner, taking casual to the border of tacky. Although I flew Economy Comfort for the flight to Iceland, I still received a delicious hot dinner and attentive service. Returning to the wretched "flying lawn chairs" of AirTran will feel like a slum (which by comparison it is).

Here's a great travel tip: You can fly Iceland Air to many of the European capitals and choose to stay over in Iceland for up to 7 days at no extra cost! This is smart marketing and a wonderful opportunity, don't miss it. The snow/sleet/rain is only in winter. In summer, Iceland is lush green hills and pleasant weather.
