Seat width is 21 inches and fully extended bed length is 60 inches (MAX), 72 inches (767) — comfortable for passengers up to about 6'3" (190cm) to sleep fully flat. The seat layout on Icelandair's long-haul widebody aircraft typically offers direct aisle access for every business class passenger, so you never have to climb over a seatmate.

In-flight entertainment is delivered via 12-inch screen (MAX), personal device streaming. Dining on Icelandair: Icelandic-inspired cuisine, skyr, Arctic char. Baggage allowance in business class: 2 × 32kg checked. All flights include amenity kits, premium bedding, and priority boarding/baggage handling.

Lounges and ground experience

At the home hub: Saga Lounge (KEF). At other airports worldwide: Contract lounges at select US airports. Lounge access is included with your business class ticket — you show your boarding pass at the lounge entrance and receive food, drinks, WiFi, and dedicated workspaces until boarding time.

On the ground at departure, Icelandair business class passengers get dedicated check-in counters, fast-track security lanes where available, and priority boarding. At arrival, baggage is tagged with priority labels and comes out first — typically saving 15-30 minutes versus economy on heavily-loaded flights.
