Icelandair Boeing 767-300ER (262 seats)
262 seats: 141 good, 13 mixed, 14 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 2–5, seats A, B, F and G (Saga Premium): saga Premium pair by the window: 40 inches of pitch and only one neighbour.
- Rows 2–5, seat D (Saga Premium): saga Premium single centre seat: an aisle on each side and no neighbour to climb past.
- Rows 7–15 and 21–39, seats A, B, F and G (Economy): economy pair by the window (2-3-2): only one neighbour, good for two travelling together.
- Row 19, seats C and E (Economy): centre aisle seat at the exits: the drawing leaves extra room in front, and nobody needs to climb past you.
Seats to avoid
- Row 16, seats A, B, F and G (Economy): last side-section row before the mid-cabin lavatories: recline is likely limited and the queue forms by your seat.
- Row 18, seats C, D and E (Economy): centre row in front of the exits, between the lavatories: recline is likely limited and the queues form on both sides.
- Row 40, seats A, B, C, D, E, F and G (Economy): last row of the aircraft, against the rear lavatories and galleys: recline is likely limited, with the lavatory queue and galley noise beside you.
