For an economy lite experience, it's by far the best I've had. New planes, clean, great destinations. Very happy to have discovered Iceland Air.
No food was served for 7.5 hrs flight. When our flight changed to other airlines due to wether issue, our seats booked with no checked in luggage when I already payed for. We end up to pay 90 euro per suitcase.
The flights were in time and the bags arrived. well done
Only serving 2 small coffee in 7.5 hrs flight with very limited choice to order food.
Booked with Kayak… Economy Class it said. I had filtered for 1 checked bag. Get to boarding and it says I have Economy Light w/ no checked bags. $136 each way for baggage now. Do not use smartfares.com. Very misleading and a terrible start to this trip.
Overall good. I was surprised how easy it was to get from plain to plain in such a short time. Food choices were not so great and quite expensive. Entertainment was ok. Flights were smooth.
Our three ski bags did not arrive and are still not delivered, one full day later. With one ski bag not traceable at all. I would not fly Iceland Air again.
Horrible. The flight was delayed by over 3 hours but updates were barely provided. Boarding started 3 hours late then stopped because their system crashed. So now, passengers were standing for 15 minutes in the open waiting to get boarding passes scanned and get on a bus. Duty-free closed around 4-4:30. Only 1 food outlet was open and it was super slow and busy since it was serving passengers from multiple flights. So a number of passengers couldn't buy meals at the terminal. Since the flight was delayed by over 3 hours, we could have been offered snacks on-board. Nothing. The seats barely reclined. In-flight entertainment options were pitiful. Overall, a miserable experience. Never flying on Icelandair ever again. :(
Again, lines for boarding are a problem in iceland. The flight itself was fine and very smooth. No complaints. We would definitely fly icelandair again.
take snacks and food. purchase options in flight are not great
Seats were alarming close to the row in front of you. I didn’t do the measurements online, which I’m sure they’re available, but it seemed much tighter than other planes, but the airplane itself was well maintained and looked fairly new. My only complaint on the staff was that we’re on an international flight. Normally they give you wine with dinner and the flight attendant decided to pull some strict restrictions and wouldn’t give more than one glass of wine per person, and you could not share with your spouse, which seemed ridiculous when we have four people on the plane with us and only one person ordered wine asked for a second one and she said oh absolutely not. It’s only one per person Which on a transcontinental usually is not the case. They’re very attentive on making sure everyone is as comfortable as possible.
Boarding seemed a bit chaotic and we had to walk outside across the tarmac. Passengers of all ages had to drag carry on luggage up the outside stairway into the aircraft. There was no WiFi. Very uncomfortable crammed seats. Glad in-air time was only an hour!
Booked through Kayak, couldnt take flight, Kayak punted to Orbiz, Orbiz punted to Aer Lingus, Aer Lingus said sorry about your luck, try Kayak/Orbiz. Terrible customer service collecting air fares and not even offering a voucher when customers cant take flight
There was no flight. I booked a flight from Toronto to Bordeaux with a stopover in Dublin. I arrived in Dublin and the flight number I had didn't exist and the flight going to Bordeaux I wasn't on. I had to book a new flight with a different airline for later in the day and pay out of pocket.
Gate agents kind of serious. Had to wait til arriving at gate to choose seats. Thankfully they did give us seats together! And grateful the honored our age, giving us seats at the front.
Very polite and helpful staff. Jet blue…ok, but not as helpful!..
Seat was very uncomfortable. The worst in all of my travels. It sagged in the middle, worse than anything any airline can offer. Not flying aer lingus again.
My Aer Lingus flight (booking ref # 2SU4LF) was the worst travel experience I have ever dealt with. My flight from Paris to Dublin was delayed by over 2 hours which caused me to miss my connecting flight back to the US. I was not able to be rebooked on a new flight for another 3 days. When I finally made it on my rescheduled flight, it was delayed AGAIN, causing me to miss my connecting flight from New York to Boston. At this point I decided to just rent a car since the next flight I would have been able to get in wasn’t for another 5 hours. It was a complete nightmare experience and I will never fly Aer Lingus again. I have requested a refund from the booking company I placed my order with.
They couldn't do through check-in for us. They took 2 hours to issue just one leg of the boarding pass. They had no idea to handle the case of passengers who travels to USA via Dublin airport. we had tough time time Dublin airport as boarding pass for the US flight was not pre-issued. Hope Aer Lingus will learn to handle such cases which they couldn't learn in in the past 50 years of the service.
Friendly crew who apologised and explained reason for delay. Good on board service. Rather cramped seating. Late departure.
The boarding process was quite loud and chaotic. The flight attendants kept barking over the PA system about people needing to only stow large items in the overhead bins. During the one and only service, I was hit by the service cart. At the same time, a passenger was returning from the bathroom and the crew definitely saw him but stopped a few seats short of allowing him to sit down before starting service and made him wait a good 10 minutes before passing his seat and allowing him to sit down, after which he had to ask for his snack and beverage or he would have been passed over. Neither flight attendant thanked passengers as they left; in fact, I did not see them again once the plane door was opened.
Cancelled flight minutes before boarding. Rescheduled flight was two days later
The flight attendants were EXTREMELY personable and appreciated the service, lights going off after dinner (probably the norm, but I haven’t flown evening overnight flights in a while). Thank you!
Business class seats were very dated on my plane. Very little storage, charging ports were not easily accessible, tv screen kept flopping away. Vegetarian food was disappointing: hardly any protein and severely under-seasoned. Crew was lovely.
The food was ok, but not great. They delayed boarding in Portland and did not enforce group boarding. But the crew was excellent, went above and beyond.
The food was pathetic. There wasn't much leg room and recline space for such a long flight. No tea/ coffee for a 2-3 hour connecting flight without purchasing! Really!?
Flight was delayed and there was boarding pass and flight information errors resulting in confusion and stress
Service was very good. Because I use a cane, I was allowed to use Priority Boarding. Biggest problem was extremely limited leg room in Economy class seats. For airplane food, it was alright.
Was late but that airport/storm fault. Flight was full but comfortable. Food quite nice. Unfortunate that I had a rather miserable attendant, others were much friendlier
Experience was good. Could have been better if we didn’t have to board an hour before the flight to ghana and miss relaxing time in the lounge. That process was very stressful
