2025 Switzerland/Germany: A Brief Bit Of Iceland

 Coming home, the most reasonable flight (per company policy) was transiting through Iceland, which was rather a shock to me.

Iceland Air's Saga class:


Icelandic beer brewed for Icelandair.  It was pretty good.


Lunch?  Dinner? Meal names lose meaning in time zones.



Ah, macaroons.  The cookie I never remember to ask for but love when I have them.




View of Iceland from the air.  I realized that it has been 7 years since we came here in 2018.



Literally had enough time to get off the plane, go through immigration, and transit to the boarding gate.  Which made me a bit sad; I would like to go back again.

    Interesting post TB, Dad spent 16 months stationed at Keflavik in 1942-43. An unexpected bonus flying this time eh TB?

    1. Nylon12 - It really was. I was shocked to find this was the cheapest transfer point home; I wish I had a day or two to stay longer.

  2. I'm impressed you got a meal on a flight! I thought they didn't do that anymore (?). Looks delicious though.

    1. Leigh, it is still a thing on International flights (thankfully). As this was the upgrade (thanks, business travel policies!), it was probably more upscale than the main cabin. It was quite delicious.
